offer a prayer unto mother

so that she may shine the blessing of creative genius upon you

Björk sits at the head of my pantheon
to me she represents inspiration, genius, and limitless creativity
if she were a polytheistic deity I think her domain would oversee
the natural world, the ocean, the unconscious, dirt, decompostition, intuition



Kate Bush

she's a legend, she's a myth, she's a mystery

master of her craft, an inspiration to us all

Kate Bush is in the godhead of my pantheon
I am so inspired by her storytelling and endless innovation
as a deity her domain would oversee
the moon, forests, storytelling, memory, spirits, the wind



Nina Simone

powerhouse high priestess of soul

an example of dedication, strength, and talent

Nina Simone was my first favorite musician
I spent so much time listening to her I owe her so much
her synthesis of baroque, classsical, jazz, and soul is unmatched
as a diety her domain would cover
the sun, willpower, light, fire, improvisation, piano



Annie Clark

the ultimate shredder

riffmaster supreme, my favorite guitarist

Annie Clark is the reason I play guitar
her riffs and flair for dissonance are untouchable
as a diety she would rule
lightning, fashion, discord, literature, guitars, structure



Robert Smith

goth king of vibes

no one writes better love songs

is there anyone that can build a mood like him?
I saw The Cure live and cried my eyes out
Robert's domain would cover
the heart, forgotten places, emotions, memory, shadows, spiders



Azealia Banks

I'm sorry legendary is legendary

the absolute most problematic fave

she has gifted us so many club classics
no one has can match the caliber of her bangers
as a diety she would oversee
conflict, dance, candor, ice, natural disasters, victory
