I AM READY
I am ready because I'm free
Free to face the enemy that was me
Sabotaging gifts
Deep envisioning
Believing
I'd rise from sleep-ins to sit-ins
Oh yes! I rise on sculped lawn
The American flag flapping on breezy Summer night
I was ready to depart wintry days of New York
My dream job in mid-Manhattan forsaken
Profit sharing shared,
I had share of the wilderness
My voice once feeble hushed.
Now, I am ready
Ready with a voice for the good of us
Ready because this verse stood solid
From diamond dust, that
In the heavens, glows and grow.
