THE LOST SISTERHOOD~

old remnants comes together

as i emerged myself within

the waters of life,

that did not rise above my head

but its touch soothed my spirit

as i listened to replications of nature

presented to me in human’s stereophonic

----- and i wondered,

while bathing in cheap bubble bath

that smelled like expensive roses

softening my body i meld with the water

i was feeling good about myself

----- how much richer can i get

than to bond with the water

by releasing water

the point where the two

comes together is awesome

while listening to humans

replicating nature

exquisitely



and i set my thoughts free

remembering an old line --

seek ye first

yes, ye seek first



as i laid down this body

and succumb to quietness

an old left hipbone on one so young

begun its slow rhythmic painful dance

rising to such a high peak it forced me
to use humans’ creations for relief

when the pains didn't stop

i prepared for spiritual creations

found three odds and ends candle holders

holding unscented blue candles

reminding me of the universe

i watched as the fire danced

half of my body was submerged in water

the other half was listening

to humans’ replications of nature



all at once, above the pain

just past my inner ear

i heard a soft healing voice from within

so soft it shattered the loudness of my pain



there was someone i was suppose to reach ---

and within my human's ego i noted, just one?

and the voice whispered ----

everything begins with one –

ye seek first



and behold i saw remnants

of something as old as time

and my eyes blinked in anticipation



and there they were ---

these women without skin
light illuminating their bodies ---

exposing purplish-blue veins
wherein their lives flowed ---

and within this state of awareness
they dived among the animals ----

covering themselves with mud
hiding from their nakedness ----

betraying secret thoughts



and here we are ----

women light had forsaken

who, in amazement ----

grasping this state of awareness

within our souls
bleached our dark skin ----

to lay open our heart to our sisters
and the balance was electrifying ----

for all who witnessed this metamorphic
were enlightened by it ----

and together we found the remnants

of the lost sisterhood



and here i am …

feeling good about myself

listening to humans’ replications of nature

cloning it beautifully ---

i am feeling no pain
