​

When a creative believes
they become anointed creators
transforming every crevice of their world
to comply

Make mountains of malevolence
imperialism and oppression move
with the power of voice
focus of mind
persistence of time

I have seen healing happen on pages
on stages
Felt the presence of The Most High enter
the darkest corner of the dancehall

Beared witness
as cob-webbed heart chambers opened
like doors
to a sanctuary
