Part III: I AM (The Roar from the Soul)

(Final transformation—stand tall, declare with fire and clarity)

I am Ahza Rex.

I am the mighty stag with rooted horns

Feeling the air and tasting the roots.

I test the waters,

Trace life in each branch.

With my hooves, I dig.

With my nose, I smell the earth.

With my hands, I play the fiddle.

I am a child of Pan.

I am both man and woman.

I remember who I am.

I am a satyr.

A faun.

A child of the woods.

A wild thing.

I have lain under stars,

Nuzzled in the bosom of the Great Mother.

I have sung with the birds,

Run with wolves,

Laughed with Dionysus,

Feasted in the cornucopias,

And danced naked in praise.

I am Ahza—

A joyful cry.

I remember who I am.

(Pause. Soften)

Now… do you?

(Beat)

Then rise.

Sing.

Touch the land.

Awaken.

I call upon you to awaken and remember who you are!
