We pulled tarot card that night, remember?
I’ll never forget the way your hands looked
While rivers flowed to realising you’d bolted
Yourself to ideologies
Only you can’t nail ideas to water
You and i
We are fluid in every form
I know there was a time
When you tripped under the influence of wires
That were wired for survival
Listening to how safety felt in your body
But you and i
We know
We know we don’t belong here
We figured out when we fucked up
How we were following maps that were designed to lose us
We are looking back and observing
Observing and reflecting on the monuments we worshiped
Recognising they were built on the backs of slaves
Reading without blind spots in the texts
Detailing the millimetres of difference in the initial stages
That formed the cages we’d adorned ourselves with
Only with deep inspection did we find
We were the keys all along
