I come from a long line of brujas y brujeros<\/p>\n
Santa, Santo, santeros<\/p>\n
I have felt the Orishas work their way through me<\/p>\n
as the bestowed this gift upon me<\/p>\n
A message from the almighty<\/p>\n
The sight to see beyond the seen<\/p>\n
When the color yellow washes over me<\/p>\n
with River waters<\/p>\n
Honeycombs stick to my body<\/p>\n
making me thick and sweet<\/p>\n
I am made to speak in tongues<\/p>\n
Sing in Africano<\/p>\n
Dance una bomba que tembla<\/p>\n
the very fabric of our beings<\/p>\n
I can wash away your sorrows<\/p>\n
with a happiness that you can borrow<\/p>\n
and a love that unconditionally speaks truth<\/p>\n
This gift that was given to me was so that I can share it with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
