ancient right

it is the right
 of all Women
   the rite
 of blood
   binding
   UstogetHer
   boundless

it is the rite
 of all Women
   the right
 of Moon
   bleeding
   to gather Us
   bondless

it is Our write
   to get Her
   ancient energy
   written
   right

it is Her writ of right
   togetUs
   a chant entered out
    Our inner lips
   to enchantUs
   with Our innateness
 of Moon blood

it is the unwritten rite
 of Our Moon
   to riot Us
   with ancient right
