i would love it if the president never mentioned children again

i would love for the weapons to crawl out of our hands and burrow down into the magma core of earth

i would love a thread that could stitch a spirit wound

i would love it if harm could be sucked up like venom, spat out

if the poison of violation could be stamped return to sender

i mean i would love it if the harm others did to us showed up as confessions on their faces which only faded as we healed

i would love a decade without men in leadership roles before they are allowed to be considered to be invited to try

sharing power

i would love a world without patriarchy, pedophilia or prisons

i would love an era of rituals to recover, rituals of release and remembering

i would love to feel tethered to the earth in the forever/free way she wants me

i would love a chance to get everyone fed

i would love each of you to feel how loved you are by your ancestors

i would love time to set things so right that we say peace or justice and mean the same thing

i would love a hundred years without borders

to feel us turn to the earth as one body

or at least majority rule of people who think in generations

not skewed by made up nations

i would love to redistribute the wealth of the world as a song of reparation

i would love an economic system that ensured universal enoughness

harnessing abundance for the collective

i would love it if we lost all sense of binary

i would love benevolent help and

oh i would love to feel fearless in my home

debt free, as a person and a people

i would love total control over every inch of my self, skin and power and thought

i would love to make of myself my grandest creation, free of shame, comparison or fear

overflowing with my deepest rooted stardust

for the whole brief flash of this human life

because that’s the whole point

i would love it if we could just enjoy ourselves

i would love to remember how to play

and you give me such moments

and that’s why i love you
