The Gods are all here because the Gods are in us

28 08 2014

see, all that we have here is all that we’ve always had

we have jealousy, tenderness, curses and gifts

but the plight of a people who have forgotten their myths

and imagine that somehow now is all that there is

is a sorry plight

all isolation and worry

the life in your veins is godly, heroic

you were born for greatness

you can believe that

you can know it

you can take it from the tears of the poet…

– a spoken word performance by the extraordinary Kate Tempest , Brand New Ancients on Film
