| Blood of the Martyrs!
Having been thoroughly washed in the blood of martyrs I am not one to march for fear of dripping ancestral energy on my enemy This energy would burn and surely I am saving them for the fire And this fire is in my children’s hearts For where most people raise their children, I raise hell and hellraisers, who give hell a good name You see my children have been called mud children As if mud is a bad thing to be from for my children are soil seed Dark and lovely, making beautiful music to kill the ugly My children have been called demon seed but they can Light it up when I give the call and I have issued the call To descend upon the beast and so me and my ankle biting, curtain climbing Crumb snatching children shall chew a plug in the ankles of lady liberty, Snatch the curtain from the hiding place of Uncle Sam and Remove more than the crumbs from freedom’s table My children are greedy they want freedom at all costs by any means Necessary, they do not except lynching as a way of life They do not feel the call to assimilation, my children have hard heads and Soft hearts, living, loving truth, strong fists high morals living life loving Love, and this is the music that fuels their souls thus they Will not be disrespected anymore. My children are New Age Afrikans They sound and move like Garvey, Nzingha, Yaa Asantewaa, and Nat Turner They make Love Supreme like John Coltrane dancing over Djembe drums as heartbeat or as hip hop rythyms in divine Overtones, my children have a love jones for their Afrikan selves And they have water smashing fists, this is the breath of Denmark Vesey, revolution loosely tied to their backs, they ate the truth finding peace somehow in Abrasive sands blasting their beautiful faces erasing the smooth Nile River lines as if history were mountains broken into pebbles by the breath Of love, my seed shall smile like small glimmers Of moon breaking the night sky lovely again and again as their poet/prophet/priest Father preaches to them he shall have them dancing on the mountains Of the moon his bones rattling with earthquake motion sun tripping on beams of sound Saturn’s rings appear before their very eyes blinding them to reasons to multiply their revolution 7,777,777,777 times burning as hot as one million sons as hot As one billion daughters evaporating water burning so hot, so fresh soooooo! Sweet That the taste is nectar and ambrosia, In other words these unspoken words will take Flight like unspoken birds and their flesh will take such a divine form that their word Shall be reborn as seeds of everlasting and as I their father am forever fasting so That they might drink of my holy blood from this chalice and eat of my flesh which burns As frankincense from Egypt and myrrh from ancient Kush per result Of this selfless act they shall neither hunger nor thirst again and I f I am this Afrikan at this time in this place in this hour in this moment then let my flesh burn til’ I become one with the universe let my flesh quicken til’ it becomes one with the word
