The human being has been colonized
Where movement once thrived Purposeful and directionless Now stagnation reigns Selfish and insensitive The human body has been enslaved To unnatural patterns And a false god The pursuit of value does not resonate Within the walls of our one true home Once we hunted for our knowledge And gathered for our spirits Now the hunt has been turned against And all gathering gone away with Tho never gone for good But hidden deep within the fog With no light to guide on no path to foot A sound is made A whisper is spoken And the breath of truth is uttered A foreign language by now But soon fluency rises And our language will be returned Howdy, I’m called Hollywood Texas and I’m a Trans, Mojosexual, healer/bodyworker and this is my movement practice, Mojo Flow. As a student of my ancestors - The First Gender, I believe there is only one thing to learn about in life and that is yourself, the body of your being. Mojo is the force that flows through every living body and it does not start or stop; it is like water, it flows. Mojo Flow is the restoration of our connection to happiness, to authenticity. This is the decolonization of the human being. 🌹The human being (your body) has been colonized by linearity (much like the binary). Although the human body itself is capable of what appears to be linear movement: forward and backward, up and down, left and right etc., the concept of straight lines and linear progression is an unnatural concept, it is the colonizers path and pursuit, the white man’s language. The indigenous body - The Human Being, is Queer and only truly moves non-linearly, or spherically. Anatomically, we are designed for movement, it is our indigenous language, and our actions speak volumes louder than our words. Though movement is increasingly being removed from our being, it is the foundation of our essence of expression - think sport, dance, strength, flexibility, balance, agility, stamina and speed but also is essential to happiness as movement is change; and though change may be uncomfortable, painful at times, it is necessary, it is natural and is your right. 🌹Gyms/studios can be wonderful spaces (though not usually inviting to queer or alternatively sized and alt. abled folks) and within the realm of “fitness” one is certainly able to learn how to find authenticity and express themselves therein, but machines show you how to use machines not bodies. Lifting weights may show you some of your strength but do not necessarily build your ability to relate well with what is heavy in your heart. This is what movement is for, here we honor process, not goals or desired results. 🌹Tuesday’s at noon - We will congregate at the East stairs of Buena Vista Park on the corner Haight street and we will be moving for about an hour. This is not a workout but it will make you warm and possibly perspire so active wear and a bottle of water is encouraged, though the less to hold = more freedom to move. Cash donations / trade of goods or services are accepted for this offering but there is no fee and no capitalism involved. All bodies of all shapes, sizes, ages and abilities are welcome and encouraged to join in on exposing their skin to the elements, especially the glutes (I will be wearing a thong and hope you can too). #mojodojo #mojoflow #decolonizethebutt #decolonizethebody

 There is no race
There is no homeland No ethnicity or nationality There is no such thing as a country There is no patriotism No outer space There is no sex, no gender There is no politics No young, no old There is no freedom or oppression There is no peace No fairness, no equality There is no sickness, no health There is no parent nor child There is no name for what the human being can do Because there is no limit to what the human being can do The human body is the only thing that truly exists Everything else is simply a perception or an extension of the spine Pain is liberal Sacrifice is progressive Movement is radical Fear is revolutionary My gender is my love: My gender is my bones My teeth and my tail My gender is my home: My gender is my skin My hair, and my nails My gender is my song: My gender is my walk My talk and my tears My gender is not just my body: My gender is my ability to use my body And to use my body is my purpose A soldier fights in someone else's army
Armies are used for control A warrior fights as an army for the self Selves are used for freedom #mojodojo  Babes, Dames, Dolls, Dandies, Fags, Femmes and Fairies of all bodies, flowers & fenders: Makeup is not for women to wear Nor is it worn for the eyes of men Like all warriors have done before us Paint is worn only for the arousal of gods And all that which is done for the Devine Can be dangerous stuff Lipstick is real big magic An ancient power that works in small roses Whatever the conjure Weather for lover or for cover Paintin yer face provokes another And if true beauty is made of pain (Trust, it certainly is) Then the painted must be protected ...Do you know how to use yer thorns?  One day when I was just only a boy
A giant eagle I was fixed on above Swooped down from the sky And ripped me off this earth It's talons dug deep into my back and shoulders as it screeched its soaring call Though now bleeding I did not mind the stinging For I was more fraid of the height And distance we were gaining from the earth So much so that I welcomed its piercing grip And when I could finally ask As to whereabout it was they takin me Is when they answered with the release of its clutches And as I fell through the clouds They replied This is the place Now fly child Shoulders and back still badly bruised Made flapping my arms VERY PAINFUL Fer the snake of all that's long gone dead done gone or forgotten how to and been put in back of
They can now slither about accurately with what that was underneath em is now each a very special little vertebrae to be moved in order to move another of Everyday they go to work. Don't always know what it is I'll be workin on necessarily, just know that the works gotta be done. After been doin this work in a place called a gym, for a good decade without any knowledge other than necessity, they have so humbly come to a great reward of this daily work. The Ancestral Language of Aesthetics Devine Design of Movement and the Art of Raising the Dead If everything ya ever lookin for
