Dancing with Mother Kali

[Guest guest]

O Mother,

who wears as a necklace

the severed heads of the egos

and busy minds

of your loved ones

please add mine to your collection,

cut off my head with your sharp sword of mercy

s i can truly say

what needs to be said here,

so i can truly say everywhere

what needs to be said.

And where words aren;t useful

may your presence shine through them anyway

so that without even needing to know what's being done

I can be secure that you use this voice of mine

to bring healing and comfort and alignment and wisdom

to each one these words reach,

wherever, whoever they are
