dancers stomp, twist, and writhe
giving voice to desires pent up deep inside
we long to rise as one and mobilize
our subaltern armies will rule the night
our democracy is plagued and under siege
we need cyberpunk power to keep the peace
nazis and fascists will come rolling deep
but we are samurai neurodivergents who reclaim the streets
we pose and strut all superfly
we allow karmic power to take control of our minds
in this manic zen we let jedi energy arise
we cast spells as we dance and sing all through the night
our future could be a horrific fascist dystopian state
We must spread love amplifying the energy our passion creates.
we won’t let the powers that be constrict our identities or name our fate
we are empowered by nanobot cylons made of stem cells that copulate
we salute lil nas x styled fiercely in red, black, and green
metallic accents are everywhere commanding our eyes to take in this scene
our queer black punk diaspora takes our cosmic energy to extremes
we rise as a nascent cyberpunk army striving for love, liberation, and peace
