by the thread of my blood
I hang for my life
some say blood is a saviour
some say it is a river
some say it is a curse
some say it is too real
some say it is passion
some say it is a gift
some say it is the invitation to the dance
some say it is collective remembrance
some say it is the tide of our bodies
it smells like birth
it tastes like broken stone
it incites killing
it invites healing
it brings together like compassion
it commands life
it inspires love
and it demands nothing but flow,
this sacred river of life
