Destiny Dressed Up
Destiny dressed in a cloud of her namesake
She’s formed from stardust and desert sand
Shouting out she cries “I AM Destiny”
From altars calling “I AM Destiny”
Looking through windows “I AM Destiny”
Forming words with silence
Surrounded by beauty she glides
She eyes her smiles
She builds on pressure
Legs shake, knees knock, sweat pours
The scent goes up and out as incense
The quarry is deep, the machines powerful
Elements explode the granite
Gravel is formed with a mouth full of dirt
Murder is planned
Sound is panned for you to shout
Your name falls like water down your face
Yours is the name
Yours is the weight
You have the reigns of our world
You have the say for life or death
You say go, you say come
The tracks are rumbling to your tune
Shadows obey
Being bends to form
Atoms split open
Magic runs scared
Elements melt
Teeth gnash
Runners cease
Roads disappear into horizons
Words rip the universe apart
The murderer will pay
Fear will end only after it begins
Fear will begin only after it ends
Destiny calls from the side of perfect beauty
Perfect beauty dances the perfect gypsy dance
Come one, come all and behold my breasts
My hips, my chimes
My friends rub shoulders with me
With love and hope for me she shouts
With love and hope
She listens for a whisper
She slips into her clothes with force
The burden of skin offends
Black paints her eyes
Blue paints her lids
Clowns make way in the market
Jackals howl from hills close by
Features are formed by wind
Streets eat rain like waterfalls
Water calls Destiny to towns
To fields, to pubs, to venues
To merchants shady there
To holy juries veering off
In tangents round and square
Forget yourself you're being formed
Forget your thoughts they're being written
Forget your worries there are now none
Just a dance, just a dance, just some shuffle in your trance
Now help your brother
Help your sister
Spend it all on love
