I speak
From a home of Red-Moon Voodoo!
In lieu of a Speaking Earth
“This is the Fatherless Region”
In a Lost child
“This is Spiritual Rebirth”
Whose Summer dreams
From Winter Chiefs in blue skin
Screams
To youths
Lost
In the name
Niggaz!
Moving on and on
I spill my summer's light
From out a mic show, forming path
Within the night to trail insight
Ye-Yo
What was one, now is jazz . On and on
Cello, trumpet, sax, and horn. On and on
Keyboard, mike, base-check, drums
But with medusas among
Us, the magic's gone. With our tongues
On the run from some who don't pun
So we hum in slums, never spurning
Where all that's spun are flicks of the wrist
"Snap! Snap!"
And
The world keeps turning
Now
On to a maple flower
Named
"Bleue"
Seen in chieftain dreams
And set on an eagle's wing
With a warmth feeding
A growing bloom.
Until her temples struck
By lightning
spilling Cool Arrows of Desire
Into the Black.
But then
"Snap! Snap!"
And
The world keeps burning
In lieu of a Speaking Earth
“This is the Fatherless Region”
In a Lost child
“This is Spiritual Rebirth”
Whose Summer dreams
From Winter Chiefs in blue skin
Screams
To youths
Lost
In the name
Niggaz!
Moving on and on
I spill my summer's light
From out a mic show, forming path
Within the night to trail insight
Ye-Yo
What was one, now is jazz . On and on
