For the Nightingales

in an age of antecedent attention adoration for the weak penchant for the at ease you arise you walk with grace across burning coals craving to feel the heat vehement with rhetoric meetings banished to breathe the defiance of the devil the here and the now into our ashes you sing to all us suffering nightingales as we nurse from your teat sliced through our banished wounds slit up amid the fear curling into every empty cavity lost in (the) spaces {of our mind} one virtuous note at a time
