spirits of life—angels of death
hermanas y hermanos—give me your breath
we traverse the earth—we search high and low
we seek karmic rebirth—buscamos el cielo
espiritus santos—cosmic incisions
we strive for solidarity—we name our own missions
dia de los muertos—day of the dead
we honor the memories of ancestors living on in our heads
sacred spirits—poders de dios
we pray that you can hear us—we worship the blue rose
the bone breaks–but it comes back stronger
espiritus celestiales–meet our karmic longing
we are a billion beautiful hearts–somos un poder creciendo reaching for the stars
we are constructing a queered up noah’s ark–we are awaiting the looming flood ready for the seas to part
