The moonlight dances on the sea,
A gentle breeze sets shadows free.
Stars above in quiet flight,
Guide my dreams through endless night.

Bussed in is what they call it way back when
Busted mouth, broken chin
Where we the reason of everybody’s sin
Can you please just let me in,
Don’t wanna get beaten again .
Doors breaking, my knees a shaken
Don’t know how much more I’ll be taken ,
So I was sent to change the world
Im not a hero , I’m just an little girl
I was told I made them url
Round and Round but not a twirl
Fighting for this equality, what in the world.
RECITATION is a Two way process
Words to say,
caught by the day
in this one-off
’ as is’ moment
images in sound
aloud
voiced
spoken
a unique
interplay
‘twixt
you and I
A mayfly moment
of the here &now
to hear
ethereal
&passing
to create
an impression
In your listener ear
poetry lies long
undisturbed
& dormant
on this page
A dead object
‘til
the cadence
of my English voice
intones
& the process
comes alive
