You know who they are
perhaps you are one of them
women who dance with the moon
bare-breasted, if weather permits
howling with lunar fullness
loosening their limbs and their tongues
to speak the truth, unfiltered
breaking silences long imposed
calling down their midnight powers
with fierce, unrelenting chants.
Moonlit, shimmering with desire,
illuminated by hope,
inspired by empathy
imbued with intention
the women circle the world,
enfolding the globe with love
declaring their fierce purpose
infusing hearts with compassion
blessing all creatures, great and small
paving a path to peace
declaring an end to war
and all other forms of oppression
so all beings may be free from strife
so all beings may live in peace
so may all beings may have
all they need to thrive.
