Helicopter hovers over Hyde Park
747 cruises beneath the sharp half moon
As I saunter past the buzz and hum of Speakers Corner
Wrestling with the stiff breeze buzz
There’s something in the air tonight
The throng at Marble Arch eager and set
Hang on every word relayed through the struggling PA
Prayers of hope and calls to peaceful disobedience
A small child takes the microphone
Something she has written today
Sweet and hopeful
Angry and alive
Crescendo triggering a roar of approval
Her face taken aback
But clearly proud
In the bonfire’s glow
Some have brought candles in jars
LED’s hang from flagpoles
And a few bold torches
Ablaze and thrust aloft
There is rebellion in the air tonight
This feels like a moment
Something real and pure and strong
A pin stuck in a slow revolving globe
A force to be breathed in and held
A song of hope that could awake the globe
There is a determination in the air tonight
This moment is the only moment
And it is a moment to believe
The ignorance servitude harnesses
The zero burdened grave race
That forbid shaving sovereign hairs
Packed close in considerable layers
Underneath national flagpoles
lay the maiden demands in barrels
like untilled tracts in grabbers souls
wants and the needs tore brothels
Behind pregnant men and women
underlies machine guns of must gain
That punched the citizenry in tatters
And the torn voices of the Anthem
so brilliant meritocratic idea present
that all nationals can sing in torment
under the radiant guardian rays pay
And really propelling the repellent sway

I rise and fall like spring tides
And soothing autumn winds
Like effervescing chemical solutions
And gliding butterfly wings
I rise and fall
Like aeroplanes departures and landing
And emblems on flagpoles standing
I rise and fall like ocean waves
And the landscape across the land
I rise and fall like someone’s hand
I rise and fall like the sun and moon
Like equinoxes and solstices
I rise and fall like speed on speedometers
I rise and fall like summer breezes
And the temperature on thermometers
I am waiting
On the broken cocoon to fly
I am waiting
On jolly Jordon's flood to dry
I am waiting
And the past behind comes pounding
Like horses hoofs with fears abounding
I am waiting
I am waiting
For flowers on flagpoles of may
I am waiting
Subjugated slave for jubilee day
I am waiting
And trumpets will sound sweet and loud
And Yeshua steps out from the cloud
I am waiting
I am waiting
Hoping on my certain faith in you
I am waiting
Lord, make us true by serving you
I am waiting
One more river into paradise
And only love shall our needs suffice
I am waiting
I am waiting
And I know the strain and fell the pain
I am waiting
In this desert, for you are my rain
I am waiting
Through blotches of night and limping dreams
The nearer we get the farther it seems
I am waiting
