Slapboxin fa memory/
come quilombo!
Mosi Ighzebier
i sat across
from our enemy yesterday.
and experienced their enflamed breath manifest in your grammar(s)
​
An ancestral response, i stepped away. And helped work on your place in the hills​
​
You of so much harm and impunity, my brother.
You of too much acceptance in desolate desires, my sister
​
Deserve a space amongst us in the hills.
Free to bare nakedness in the coming together of new order(s).
​
To my siblings and family in struggle, however, you present. Let rhythms of grandguiders hum.
"This mmooovement willl heal youu." Too.
​
Let footsteps on this earth, puncture withered armors of our enemies. Planted steps drumming "What we have always known..known..known"​
​
Should mothers' descendants acquire all memory/
​\And stretch her hands
Remnants of your exhaust could never asphyxiate.
​
Our spaces in ruin, wail for our own bias. So yes, i left you in that moment and left the sadism.
Only to return with your train ticket to the hills.
Maybe i am not a revolutionary/should i go​
​
yet/in my time
​
Inclined to write of that True half of life,
i
garnered all of the unmanifested salt of mine imaginary
​​​
The water flows. still. Losing its perfect memory.
Soaked by jagged steel corrupting and corroborating this pain and the
despair. Life's True Half.
​
Until a star of change hit, illuminating. i must be a revolutionary. There are
no alternatives for ini.
​
The people of the sun.
​
RAHHHH, wailing. As we thrust the life force of our imaginary upon the (dark
spirit) warriors of mourn and to-mourn.
​
To Imani, our born-unborn: Child, should i go before life–this iteration–grants your
beauty to its companions. Be still in that we battled fiercely that first step of the
revolution.
​
The corrupted individual: those cursed elements of spirit due for purge.
Change! Before implosion. Before the inward consumption of thought. Vacuums
Vacuums.​
​
Selah.
