What if staying safe and comfortable
is not where you’re supposed to be?What if it isn’t supposed to be easy?
What if that raw edge
to your nerves,
that streak of pain on your skin,
that pang in your heart,
are the signs
that your soul is growing,
that you’re on the verge
of an emergence
that would not be possible
without being
exactly where you are right now:
wild-eyed,
sharp-edged,
weary,
ragged,
fierce
and howling?
Listen
I am the Great Queen.
Fate whispers through my feathers
And winds through the songs of history.
I am she who transforms
I protect life with ferocity
And I walk freely with death.
