(STREET CORNER SENRYU)
THE SOUND...
(DUSK)
Man in setting sun
Purple and pink prismatic
The air smelling sweet
(DAWN)
Man in rising sun
Day unfolding in potential
Warm rays on black skin
(THE WARRIOR)
The day absorbs of him
He in stasis observes deep
He was born of them
(PRESENTLY)
Bee suspended in flight
Elephants are dying everyday
Man prepares for war
(INCREDULOUS)
Such beauty abounds
Oblivious to man plans
He would destroy all
(AGAPE)
Cattle at slaughter
Sheep crowding into corner
The masses misled
(STANDING)
He exists transparent
Wind emerging from cave
The most gentle push
(SOAPBOX)
The roar subsonic
His voice melanin defined
Man in a mans skin.
