glory be! she cried
in Organ Rock grip voice.
Feed me!
I eat your words
Celebrate!
i taste your life.

eyes locked on her sounds
windows shaking
floor ambulating
moving hearts and souls

Cry the sky scorching
Ye! Sistuhs…..we
in freedom glory be!

their voices soft
rose to decibels unknown
paintings brushed their tears aside
walls pastel turned yellow red

congas followed
rolling tribal blessing
as angel kisses lit their cheeks

preachin to dem
cryin out their soul longin
oh rock us heavy
and fly our sorrow
