I pledge to be a portal of the Divine

 

to flow like rivers

and never swim in the shallow

 

to live with a wide-open heart

and loud voices

 

to break the silence

and stand what I see

 

to howl the truth 

and awaken my goddess-given powers

 

to hold oceans in my womb 

and skinny-dip them on a full moon

 

to dance our prayers

and burn for change

 

to hold circles

and remember

 

to heal sisterhood

and create medicine out of stories

for scars stronger than skin.

 

may you remember all of this as true

and run free and wild like a wolf
