Claiming My Egyptian Heritage

I claim my Egyptian heritage of Love, rivers, healing Geese fly high above our pyramids Those rocks moved with magnetic music Light cascading through space Thoth dances above our crowns I sway beneath Amun-Ra She-He caresses my auburn hair a deepening of irises it was my thunder and my own blistering hands Nile flows freely watching Now my goddesses sit in their Merkaba’s chanting around an eternal flame carrying melodies of change violined voices on violet strings A million workers marched barefoot through fields or furnaces aligning cores below to above Sirius clapped assent urging me out into Space Pyramid ! Triangle of my refuge and direction While above signs watched my movement up the Squinx to a northern node Bronzed arms encircle my hips as Africa unites with Asia I did not know that in a Southern land I would disembark to crack hearts of steel with spirals of crystalline carbon a moment at Last Supper I relived this teaching Myrrh rained down to anoint My Heart was His- Hers !
