Carried Into Redemption
I know that lizards like jelly, because i have fed wild geckos on the roof of my hut in the seychelles islands. she was called the morning lizard, and i would drop clear ponds
From the tips of my fingers for her to drink, and drop gobs of silly flavored jelly on the counter for her to lick.
I know that it is possible to become intimate with a stranger, from a distance, across time and continents, because i have knelt before a young master in a very private tea
Ceremony. i watched him move, whisk, wipe, fold, touch, offer, drink, enter, exit,
Well this one wasn't so good.
I have debuted at carnegie hall.
I have been homeless, panhandled on the streets.
I have witnessed death, and birth, and graduation.
I have been told to leave, and invited to stay.
I went to a big new years eve party in new york city, with many famous people, the mayor, baryshnikov, jessica lange,
I was at the opening of the film which one best film that year.
I was kicked out of high school
I was given the key to the city of baltimore.
What a kick. i'd like more of those. i was arrested
I am the highest point of my family tree. i call them to fruition, i sing them themes about the beautiful sky, but they cannot see it. there is a canopy above them, being
Woven out of determination to grow. out of the legacy of pain. i call them but they do not come, they cannot come, no sun hits them.
I have swum with turtles in the open sea.
I found ancient, rusty nails on the shore.
And written about the boat, the sailors, and their homes , from one piece of survival.
I grew up in a hospital, watching my brother die.
I grew up in a hotel room , watching my mother bring home left over food.for our dinner.
I have cried my self to sleep by the cold sea, with no coat or blanket or dime for the phone,-
