I am one shade of the descendants
of this Daughter Earth,
the mighty Sorceress Supreme,
the only one in a family of nine
who was imbued with magic,
curated and created capable,
patient and grounded,
like the mother star who's been
burning bright for eons that has passed,
just so life is sustained,
the orbits and order of family survives!

I have skin fortified in nature,
born and bred into the charms of
the magical mud of this magnetic earth,
an apprentice with a thirsting hunger
that resides at my core, gifted
with life,that spell moving in on the curves
that make me and stains the envelope
of my taut clay skin, evolves
into patches of arid earth where
roots of the tree of life props up,
entangled and carved in stretched marks!

I touch those pale marks, tattooed on to me,
like fingerprints unique, in their trails and texture,
they resonate with the power
for which I am a channel , through me
memories of a millenia courses deep,
a universe of the feminine pain and pleasure,
strength, stealth and love, covers me,
and I see the woman that I have become;
bare and beautiful in my flaws,
worthy and complete in the mirror,
in my own eyes I see who I am, just magic!
