Text on the back of this shirt is Death Doulas of the Apocalypse by Sevan Arabajian-Lawson, whose poem strings this album together.
What if I told you that you decided to be here? That you chose to come to this world, to be exactly who you are at exactly this time? What sort of expansion does that allow your closing, anxious chest to explore? How does your heart drop or lift at the idea that there is something more?
What does it mean to allow space rather than hold it, just let it be there, non grasping, just witnessing and flowing.
I propose this: That we have learned through lifetimes of trauma and troubles, joy and creation to find rhythm in uncertainty. Every single moment brought us here, to this terrifying precipice overlooking the unknown. But, before the leap, we must say our goodbyes, for we are the way-makers, the doulas of the apocalypse inviting the medicine of mourning, the power of pure unbridled expression, and the magick of shamelessly calling into existence our wildest desires. Let us dare not cling to a dying world. Let it be devoured and transformed into new life so we may end with grace and begin with courage, to mourn, embrace, and ignite the radical fires of unrelenting love.

lyrics
At the first sight of decay
Turn towards love, not away
Spit in the abyss
Step toward horizon
To suffer is to exist
Persist in defiance
