Are they characters I made up?

The Lady of the Depths
The Lady of the Robe
The Lord of Shadows
The Shotgun Crones
The Perverted Hero
The Priestesses of the Garden
The Joker Sage
The Dwarf Rishi
The Philosopher Foetuses
The Nefarious Nefertiti
The Curandera
The Culinary Witch
The Unwell Cosmic Tortoise
The Sensuous Queen of Snakes
Some evil demigod fucker in a white mask

Maybe the witch, the curandera, the philosophers, the shadow lord, and Nefertiti
But I don’t know about the rest

They haunted my dreams
         They taught me things
                   They spoke to me
           And showed me scenes
I don’t claim to be a prophet
Or a shaman
          A warlock
Or a wise man
          I am no mystic
And can’t use Fate’s chopsticks
                                   To pick out my fortune
From a jar of cookies

I may just be crazy
Measured in bananas
Singing…
