Detura
All along your way,
wherever loose ends, broken strings, or slipknots were left unattended
Cotton, Nettle, and Heather have been spun
to repair your DNA tapestry.
Quilt of loving refuge.
Wrapping all this familial greif
in tears of laughter and homecookin'.
Every dusty corner of your family home
is completely cleansed and fully doused
in floral Water of Achiote
preparerd through generations of celebrations, and survival.
Lupen
They showed me your true face,
and against all odds delivered me
to this
safe
healing
place.
Where I starve you, purge you
like the Soul parasite that you are,
and liberate you forever—> send you up to the stars.
And thank you for the battle,
my unworthy opponent,
for all that you’ve shown me
right up to this moment.
Yellow Corn Pollen
Our deseos will always
be with you,
praying for you
con cada respiro....
trusting that it worked when we
put our prayers in fire ashes,
and the ashes in your umligo.
