Oya In ChinatownA Poem by KhemiJegnaThe spirit is present It rained when i first saw you The atmosphere delight Shango still in plasma Echoes of the calmed war Rolling thunder Somersaulted between us Lightening captured in absence It Was then I knew you could bend light Your scent, a mist, unknown and missed my kundalini chilled Ive felt the tail of a comet as you passed me Moved by a gaze... my emotions have not quarreled Palm wine I tasted and kola nuts A touch from you I heard the Ancestors. A ritual and a rhythm unrecognized by us as i wrestle with you and knew you I treaded upon this place before With you i'm naked unashamed and eternal with the union of the firmament. Veil is your vessel. Oshun dances in your heart Oya reigns with you.. Anything that opposes thee resigns. You are present The spirit is present. The Aquarius constellation smiles upon you. © 2016 KhemiJegna |
