sweet smells orange peeled
calm as chamomiles taste feels discrete
wakes up this mornings contemplate

sometime kept permanent
private I conclude right now's mine
quiet as a secret

moonshine sips the set down a spell
mercy had home spun
pardons breathing's gentle persuasion

oxygenating every next generations gap
books are written from birth bowlegged limping
unique chapter in freed verse

blessed and cursed ballads bought and sold
from slave merchants of a paradise lost
where a billion heartbeats surround all alone

watch the poet dance...
in the steal away of a Palestine existence
within the shadow of serenity's imposing challenge

champion his purpose
