La Loba: Women of the Wolves

passing
like smoke
through
cracks in stars

we glide
as one

from
veiled
underbrush

out
of shadowed
mountain fog

tread softly

gliding
beneath
silver moon beams

see us:
beautiful la loba
women of the wolves

prowling
margins
between worlds

outrunning
the winds of time

riding bareback
together
into the unknown.

see us:
la loba

you and I
moving as one
never apart

women wild
born
to run with wolves

born
one soul-spirit
born
paired and
mated for all time

together
we

guard each other’s soul
we
sleep the same dreams
drink each other’s breath
we
swim in each other’s blood.

shapeshifting
mysterious
la loba

see us:

dancing life
back into
our once-deadened souls

singing love
to ourselves
to each other

transforming
our dried and dusty bones
our strangled selves

see us:

slipping
out of boxes
out of cages

crossing boundaries
crossing worlds

la loba
you and I

women who run with wolves

together
we

step out
of the hidden
the unseen

together
we

stand
at the crossroads

cradling
magic
in our
palms.
