Analysis of Carbon (a message to melanin beings)
Evone GoddessLegba Payton Banks 1984 (Philadelphia)
Formed in dust and sprinkled with life and love and thirst. Thirst for forbidden knowledge and wisdom anchored in truth of reality. We are but a frequency.
Melaninated energies formed by the gods. Ancient our spirit be as we help number the stars. We are but a dream of vision.
Here from the beginning of time. The Carbon of your skin fed the ethereal plain with tales of old and magic of folk an lore. We are but Gods.
Reach down into the soil and pull up the essence of our ancestors paid for in blood, sweat and tears. Descendants of Kings and Queens of foreign earth. We are but starseeds.
Blessed be the gods that brought forth your bang into existence. We are but evolution of higher beings. Carbon... oh carbon, align your 6 neutrons 6 protons and 6 electrons. We are but energy.
Awakening to realms of 9 the heavens beckons your soul ether. We are one.
