Of Clanging Living Words
OF CLANGING LIVING WORDS
Let me trumpet
living words
breathing
to the heartbeat
of awakening
awareness…
Living
healing words,
strengthening
inspiration and
determination…
Living words,
pumping hope
bleeding from
the cistern of
resurrection’s
fulfilling faith:-
Let me trumpet
living words
with
alarm clock
reverberations;
waking up
sleeping courage…
Living words—
exhaling oppression,
inhaling liberation;
both with each
rhythmic respiratory
breath…
Living words—
shouting freedom
at last—as we
sojourn alive
and well—
railroading
peace and love:-
Let me die
apostolic—
a trumpeter
of living words—
leaving behind
miles of clanging
echoes—nourishing
youthful and thirsting
hearts, minds, and souls.
