Tonight I seek guidance
I yearn to know
To see where I end
To know where you begin
I strive to guide you
Navigating manic waves
I seek our emergent oracle
Sacred wisdom
Amidst this psychic storm
You are my manic angel
My creative protege
My spirit brother
My beloved friend
Your genius evolving
Your energy manifesting prophecy
A prism of light captured in your eyes
Your magnetic being
Your inner beauty
Seeking insight
I turned to my oracle deck
An adapted psychic spread
A reading on our shared path
In our subconscious
We find nirvana
Spirit becoming physical
Then evolving back into spirit
Flame unleashing vapors
Reabsorbed into the cosmos
In my present being
I guard my boundaries
My psychic craft floats
Gliding through this ocean of manic turmoil
Navigating these waters demands discernment
Surrendering to community
Heeding collective wisdom
Perhaps most telling is the card of purpose
An accident of the draw
It tells me what we are
This Nguni Bantu word Ubuntu
Its potent meaning
I am because we are
I am told that our fates are aligned
That this connection is sacred
I am told of noble purpose
I learn from you
I seek to prepare you
I want to protect you
To shield you from layers of trauma I endured
But I know this to be impossible
You will find your own way
I give what I can
But I must give you freedom
Space to make your own choices
This manic oracle
Channeling ancestral wisdom
Burning through the fire of your manic eye
The fierce love we share deepens
Reaching into the earth
Grounding
Amplifying this manic oracle
Prophecy evolving in our minds
