Vertical -
My eyes are shut
I see darkness
Yet the blackness
Dances in the light
Just the tittle I am
Screaming getting
My mouth is shut
The silence tickles my throat
I am muted I can't hear myself
Yet I talk as I stand versed allotted
In this position vertical I rise I lift my eyes
I lift my voice I lift my arms and hands
Praising to the Almighty and in this present tense
Vertical I stand and in this presence tense I stand
Vertical tall as the tree no one comes to me
I hover over the masses I react showing the dancers
My feet are moving yet firmly planted on the ground
And the blackness of the light that shines in the deafness
Of my mouth that verses the screams in silence I stand quietly
Vertical
