After November 2024




We will go on.


Despite the chasm, the despair, the road lost

For now through the undergrowth of hate

We will put one foot in front of another

We will hold fast to each other


And go on.


As we face the days of terror, dissolution

Forces ranged across our future

Oppression, violence, laws from the witch-burning times,

We must have each others' winged backs

When no help is coming from outside.


Keep in your heart that pentagram of fire

Inscribed on Baphomet's brow;

Seek words of the wise; especially those at your side.

The path is dark, but we bear our own light

We who have walked these roads since time began.


The long shadows of the theocrats, reaching in

To ruin lives, freedoms, pleasure, reason, love

Stop here at our feet. No further.

Now we see our black flames kindled

High in circles of protection

For all those endangered, demonized, excised

For stepping over someone else's line.


We are Legion and our black flag is planted

As a beacon for justice ─ for all

Deeper than any cross in the soil of this nation.


What is claimed for a petty tyrant God

Was gifted with full rights of law and land

To our Black Goat, its torch of freedom,

Equality, autonomy

Burning now in newly kindled hearts.


Scream, rage, cry and shout to the wind

To the very edges of the light

But listen for soft voices

Of the vast web of allies

In the dark, standing at your side.

The storm erases lines between both sea and sky

But still,


Awake, aware, together


Now we fly.

NOW we fly, again and again I return to these three simple motivational words. YES we will fly.
