A New Freedom

Shrieking and squawking, 
following prophets through uncharted waters, 
wailing in sustained arpeggios. 
He mimics constellations, blazing stars in rich profusion, 
pulling passion into focus with a dark yet supple tone. 

Religions and mythologies, 
screams of souls in harsh enslavement, 
sources for his stark doxologies. 
Charting new boundaries of rhythm and rhyme, 
a new definition his legacy, growing with time.
