Woman Gift

Nothing wrong with being woman
who speaks power into you
while power she is too
a sturdy grace gentle pace
faced with plenty of perplexity
hers yours the others but she soars
honest...beauty a welcome mist
fertile ground blooming this
rose confident intent on strength
warm heart...smart from the start
oh she knows more than you think
but she will speak power into you
while power she is too
nothing wrong with being woman

Catch Breath

We're singing...singing for our souls to brighten...
our hearts beating...stronger with every inhale...
exceeding our necessity to shine

They're Not Average

They're running marathons
for something more than 
checking it off of their list of "things to do"
before they die...
They successfully complete the course
only to realize that it never ends...
now it's time to begin again...
gain momentum on the never-ending voyage
They recognize that there is an energy, a power, 
a strength independent of the physical
They obey the celestial...
keep moving forward through all obstacles...
they're not average...they're running marathons
and enjoying every step

Community Reset (an excerpt)

These Streets
My team
We scream bloody every time
Your feet hit my beat
don't come here unless
You no fear playing with fire
the red and blue ain't for hire
just want to go higher in mind
want a mind on higher ground...reset

Musicians, Street Pianos and Snowfall an excerpt

He brought his piano
and played a new song
it sounded like sleigh bells
and notes that were all wrong
but a lifetime of tickling keys
could only bring forth good cheer
the harmony of the melody
crescendo-ed right into the new year

Higher Authority (an excerpt)

Under the new regime

children from across the waters

navigate trouble with caution

be clear, this is not Zion my babies

freedom was never free

but Divine love is everywhere

let no rhetoric guide thee

stand on shoulders tall if you will

walls built can't interrupt grace

we're chanting down Babylon

trusting JAH the Most High in this race
