Rebel Rock!
war, sex, blood, lust, love, death, pain, hurt, equality, sweat, screams, howlin
crack, police, joints, dope boyz, shootas, road blocks
mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, moving, forward
girl, ladies, women, wife, chicks, breezies, groupies, sluts
good pussy! great pussy!
dirt, dirty, nasty, swanky, sweet,
a boy needs to be strong
a prisoner of time
he aches for freedom
the mildness of the aged
a subdued gesture of comfort
written and spoken
articulated
paths reached before the youthful dreams die
we hope to salvage the misunderstood thoughts
and prayers
motions of love
quarenteen his breathing
mother and grandmother
furnish a decadent landscape of endlessness
and with his voice we spoke
screams and electric chorus vibrating
pitches and gyrating ligaments
the first touch of wood and ivory
gold plated magnums and dr. king speeches
he step forward with fury
no longer closed and captive
no longer a slave and a witness
no longer an unknown face and expression
for this is truth to the boy
loud and boisterous riffs and rhythmes
savage drums
and for that moment
he finds himself among all of creation
safe and free to die and be reborn
with each rising son
