I Am - by Luki von der Gracht I) This is for all the light hunters, the shape shifters and the god eaters That made it all the way here That broke out of darkness Transformed And ate dust The ones that came out of fire Now create their own worlds II) I’ll be waiting in the grass I’ll be waiting by the flowers And I’ll be waiting in the trees Cold and shiny I’m an animal One sting and you’re done It’s almost painless, don’t you worry My eyes are black and yes, I color my lips Yes, I zigzag-ed my way But I twist and I wriggle and much as I like My eyes are black and yes and I color my lips You hush and you shushh I’m dancing tonight I’m dancing I’m painting I walk and I talk I postpone I say no I produce And I crawl III) I spit out words I slice up bodies I walk the walk I walk my walk I am slippery and slow I am danger I am strong I’m delicious I am careful You’re suspicious You’re suspicious You’re like me It’s in our souls It’s in our hearts It’s in our bones You’re chopping wood It’s in my voice I’m eating words I’m eating dust I’m chopping wood IV) With purpose and beauty I leave behind shredded skin And words are like skin Don’t you think? So this is my story How I came to life Now I’m writing on the wall Writing my name in ink I’m chopping wood I’m wearing pink
