OUTRO (Exclamation Point) |
| Tell you something about poetry, it refuses |
| It breaks and asks to be broken |
| The broken pieces form a question mark |
| And this is the revolutionary poem, exclamation point |
| The radical belief that broken is beautiful |
| That breaking is essential |
| That revolution is built from wreckage |
| Exclamation comes from asking |
| The question is, «What use do we have for time not measured by the rivers |
| dancing beneath us? |
| In us? |
| Befor us?» |
| We pray like this, majestic, lectric |
| We slide, step, dip, shake, every room a dance floor |
| Let all my skin kin in, let sunshine in |
| Let me kiss on my loves chosen and fought for |
| Come, make you a plate |
| Pour some out |
| Return and get it |
| This is the thing about poems |
| They want to live |
| They remind us when we forget how to love and be love |
| How even leaves have veins with stories to tell |
| And we are the stories |
| We are the radical and hopeful |
| We are the revolutionary poem, exclamation point |
| You don’t have to go home, but this is only the start |
| The good part is what comes next |
