A harvest ritual exploring the links between maternal sacrifice and humanity’s extractive relationship with the Earth.
I am Demeter
Doorway to the divine feminine
Bringer of fruit
Giver of grain
I am the Bread of Life
I am the Bearer of Pain
For too long unacknowledged, I am Demeter
Tender destructive vulnerable and aching
Forever reborn into life after death
I could scorch this earth with a single breath
I am Demeter and I serve this world with
Palms of fruit and belly of bread
Kiss my breasts for sustenance
Eat from my body and experience
The power and pleasure of creation
