I Sing, Kali

I sing, Kali
though I am only one
of the millions who rise
who come forth, wave after wave
across an ocean of time
to finally make this world Mine
 
I sing, Kali
just one more among many
who took that sacred oath
to harness that burdensome boast
of Kali’s wicked wrath
that path… of a story desperate to be told
and how it’ll finally teach this world
what it means
to be bold
 
I sing, Kali
one more precious peddler
hawking that ever-unfolding bloom
that long-misunderstood ancestral womb
men have too-long treated
as their personal tomb
 
I sing, Kali
for Kali…
 
comes for you.
