Song Lyrics

Hail To The Grim
Hail to the grim, marauders and kings For power is in crowns, bangles and rings The warlike are dead, the peaceful don’t rest

The Gathering/The Raid
The Gathering/The Raid Workers of Pathways Part Two The concrete of the hospital steps was already seeping cold through the knees of her scrubs. The nurse had not moved since she found the bundle. She just held it held her, Baby Sofia, though she did not have a name yet tight against the warmth of her chest, shielding her from the institutional chill.

You breathe like a secret I’m dying to break, Soft little tremor I’m starving to take. Hands on your waist, yeah—silence behaves,

Did you change or was it me? I noticed the wrinkles by your eyes yesterday when you laughed softly at your phone. Your eyes used to hold me,

I added the video because it is an important part of the visuals for this story. I am not apologizing for the video because I thought about just publishing the story but the video works for this story. My teacher friend in LA loves the videos and the visuals. I dedicate this to my teacher friend, Ms. Lidia, to my social worker therapist, Elizabeth, to my Nurse, Arapia, and to my caregiver, Rosa.

Older Than I Am
I was good at keeping lists, good at being good. Learned to read the weather in people long before I understood. There were nights I counted worries

You were in my cradled home
‎How beautiful was our soul kinship ‎Hiding from the moon's dreamship ‎The waves that kissed the shore were buried ‎As they gathered the silence you carried ‎ ‎You were dancing under bright skies ‎And I was hidden beneath that paradise ‎Wild evenings shyly smiled ‎When you softly chuckled ‎ ‎You were in my cradled home ‎I was hidden in your heart alone ‎My breath grew heavy with the peace ‎When love wandered within your embrace ‎ ‎The dreams once adorned with longing ‎Carrying the fragrance of lost belonging ‎Now the winds return them ‎To where your presence shines like a gem ‎ ‎You were in my cradled home ‎I was hidden in your heart alone ‎My breath grew heavy with the peace ‎When love wandered within your embrace ‎ ‎Bound to the hope of a wounded bird ‎But you stand far away your reflection is blurred ‎Why do you return in floods of tears ‎To reclaim that lost time and falling years ‎ ‎How beautiful was our soul kinship ‎hiding from the night's dreamship ‎You were dancing in under bright skies ‎And I was hidden beneath paradise ‎ ‎You were in my cradled home ‎I was hidden in your heart alone ‎My breath grew heavy with the peace ‎When love wandered within your embrace ‎

A Lifetime, Unlimited
pausing to capture a moment in time smiling for the camera, secrets inside a letter never knowing which, last sunset, is mine

I Am Not My Uterus
My hands aren't made to touch you... My arms aren't meant to hold babies. My legs aren't made to open for you. My pussy ain't the place for your decrees.
