Learn My Name (by JAH)

it's red mouth
closed around
out bones-
around itself
covering what
was before.
darkness flows
into the sky
where a sun
ws before.
we are strangled
by its burning power
melted into air
where bodies
were before.
it is the language
it is the poetry
it is the blood
it is the truth
and we don't even
know its name
