"Something"
Something, A Flicker, A Flash of Light In Your Eyes
When I Try To Cry My Eyes Are Dry To Dry I mean What I Say
And I am not a teller of fictions, or lies, I speak truth
If angry or threatened, I can be Quiet Brave and Tactical
Intelligence, form, and Soul, within me are my being
I am proud of where I come from, and cannot Be
Displaced.  Something of Danger; a threat in The Strangers
Until this shifty period ebbs, I cannot Tell You
 How Paranoid I must Not Be, Or I Will No Longer Be Allowed To
Coexist with other People.  Something Of Awareness of The State
Of Things, And a Culture Self-invented, OF Legend and Heroes
My Jesus, My Angels, My Gods and Fairies, My Karma, My Poetry
I Feel Like I Have A Wonderful Career, Which I Created From Nothing!
Imagination is a beautiful thing, Something in his walk
Something in my husband's Sadness and Fears, something in him
That I Would Die For, In These Time Space Ripples
That Will Settle ino Decomposing Leaves Before I
Or My People, Have Fallen.  When I Do Fall, I Will Be
Damn Well Ready and Willing, like the Oak Tree or The Pecan.
But I Am Not Willing.  It is Not My Will To Surrender To Man.
In JEsus' Name.
Amen!
