rising high and owning the night
queer rebels fuck and scream in delight
reclaiming our pride and eluding denial
sex is nothing if its not a little wild
the pathology of bigotry is insidious and cruel
luring far too many into its incipid cesspool
in claiming a type to define desire
we allow oppressive norms to confine and rewire
a new queer rebellion must reclaim solidarity
elevating the onyx tribe—celebrating latinx lives
erotically charged our army grows strong
seducing new leaders and crafting new songs
like onyx we grow hard—like onyx we envelop the light
the dialectic of queer expression brings liberation to the dark of night
