My favourite poem

by Jewel Mathieson, Wild Women Sisterhood

We have come to Be Danced

Not the pretty dance

Not the pretty pretty, pick me, pick me dance

But the claw our way back into the Belly Of the Sacred, Sensual Animal dance

The unhinged, unplugged, cat is out of its box Dance

The holding the precious moment in the palms Of our hands and feet Dance

We have come to Be Danced

Not the jiffy booby, shake your booty for him dance

But the wring the sadness from our skin dance

The Blow the ship off our shoulder Dance

The slap the apology from our posture Dance

We have come to Be Danced

Not the monkey see, monkey do dance

One two Dance like you
One two three, Dance like me Dance

but the grave robber, tomb stalker
Tearing scabs and scars open Dance

The rub the Rhythm Raw against our Soul Dance

We have come to Be Danced

Not the nice, invisible, self-conscious shuffle

But the matted hair flying, Voodoo Mama Shaman Shakin’ Ancient Bones Dance

The strip us from our casings, Return our Wings Sharpen our Claws and Tongues Dance

The Shed Dead Cells and slip into
The Luminous Skin of Love Dance

We have Come to Be Danced

Not the hold our breath wallow in the shallow end of the floor dance

But the Meeting of the Trinity, the Body Breath and Beat Dance

The Shout Hallelujah from the top of our Thighs Dance

The Mother may I? Yes you may take 10 giant Leaps Dance

The olly olly oxen free free free Dance

The everyone can come to our Heaven Dance

We have come to Be Danced

Where the Kingdom’s Collide
In the Cathedral of Flesh

To Burn Back into the Light
To unravel, to Play, to Fly, to Pray
To root in skin sanctuary

We have come to Be Danced

We Have Come…
