Bowerbird Bacchanal
A Seated Craft

I am rising, I'm done fighting to be small

no dark hands will make me a shadow on their wall

all this silence has made a skeleton of me

I am rising, bones are rattling

build a bower, bound with blue and shiny things

all around her lair of hooks and bells and rings

only beauty and the absurd and the divine

may peruse me, may pay their dues to what is mine

oh life you've tried to make amends

with sunsets wide and humble men

but I take back now my loose ends

and bind them tight

to make the right kind

of kindling

to light a fire with

so let's burn this, let this become our bacchanal

fire and furnace, a pyre of words old and banal

light ignited – the likes of which I've never seen

line by syllable burned clean

of what was said and what was heard

do not be bound and burdened by those words

of what was done the unsung hurt

do not be ground and girded by those words

we're stronger when we let ourselves be heard
