arms extended
luminous dark
the night sky
stars
markers for those pains
healed into brilliance
humid air surrounding her
radiance of waters
welcoming yemaya
yemaya, mother of fishes,
yemaya, rejoicing in oya
oya
our first and last breath
her arms forming the center of our lives
the hurricane of the world outside
oya
sheltering
