Emergence - Inkubus Sukkubus

I lie in peace in the womb*

The earth, my mother, my tomb…

So much life here,

How could I ever sleep?

Roots stretch like veins

Pumping life here beneath

I feel the worms on my flesh

They speak of life, not of death

My ears awake now

To songs so brand new

My sleeping limbs

Stir to dance of the truth

I hear the call now

To stretch toward the sun

I’ll crawl through soil and stone

Until we two are one

I find a strength in my bones

The earth is not yet my home

Now, higher ever I climb

Cold fingers stretch for the sky

I stand alone on the earth

The sun has witnessed my birth

I feel you stir ‘neath my feet

I call you now back to me…

(He stirs)

Now, by my side we are one

My love, my brother, my son

Death cannot take from me

Our souls are one, we are free
