Dance of the Maenad
Milk from the soil
coiled like a snake
on the swaying arms
of a lady in the fray
Maenad on display
in the madness
in the rain
In the blood
I can taste
in the race
of my heart
Dancing with the malice
of a bitch with murder in her eyes,
and the wine in her hands-
So she'll dance
so she'll laugh until
the life leaves her eyes
A rebel in the revel
of the drums on the land
barefoot in the sand
and naked in the night
Sing 》
《Cry
Spin》
Laugh, dream, careen
then break, scream, release
tearing flesh from the men
who put their poison
in our dreams and their guns
to our heads and their laws
in our flesh-
Parasites in our beds
and we'll fight
til' we're dead

What incredible ink.
I can't critique what's brilliantly penned, in my opinion.
I'm just extremely grateful to have stumbled across this today. It's enormously powerful and the impactful has certainly been left and felt deeply.
We're fortunate to have you here with us.
