OF SPIRIT AND SHADOW

 

Manic energy flows
Burning like lava
I imagine immortality
I capture nirvana

We tread this path
We pave a road
Amplifying neurodivergence
Living in creative flow

I share my story
I offer these tools
You teach me reciprocally
As the sun fuels the moon

I think about spirit
You are my twin flame
Illuminating my shadow
Branding walls with your name

Vibrant colors intersect
Mirroring your sacred potential
Reflecting the love we share
Creating an inferno elemental

We cultivate praxis
Making theory concrete
Reimagining this spectrum
Unleashing subaltern dreams

Our world is on a precipice
We bare witness to genocide
Our lineage is an antidote
Activating psychic fire

I am at a loss for words
Striving to capture our reality
This process has changed me
I evolve into new identities

We conjure shadow magic
Dark emotions fly free
We see the demons of mania
We stop and we breathe

Mind and body will pass
But spirit is eternal
We craft our karmic map
We open spiritual portals

To change our world
We must change ourselves
Manifesting transcendent love
Alchemizing ancient spells

This spirit of liberation soars
We carve obelisks with our names
Someday this body will die
But my sacred shadow remains
