IN THE LANGUAGE OF WINGS

IN THE LANGUAGE OF WINGS

Poem By: Billy Alsbrooks

__________________________________

Let us navigate the murder

The murder of our former selves

Who dare come with me?

To the sky

Who dare come with me?

More

There’s so much more beyond the borders of our perceived limitations 

There’s another world out there, where feet have never touched the ground 

Where the only language spoken is with wings

Where the word sickness has never been uttered 

Where lack and scarcity cannot breathe 

Where the crazies are seen as geniuses 

Where the misfits are honored and appreciated 

Where darkness has no room to stretch its legs

Where every dream and desire comes to fruition 

Where death has no arms nor sting

Where failure has no womb to be born

Where fear has no gate to enter the heart

Where doubt has no weapon to kill ambition 

Where the mouths only sing love and life

Where the poets and musicians lead society

Where artists are understood and valued 

Where the warnings of prophets are heard 

Where the scriptures are walked out and applied 

Where there’s no politics, right or left

Where there’s only truth and the betterment of mankind 

Where every coin is gold and has value

Where lies have never been imagined or even whispered

Where every voice knows it’s true  identity 

Where hands have never torn down another soul

Where shovels have never dug graves

Where war cannot rob the cradle of the future 

Let us enter into this new realm of possibility

Who dare come with me?

To the sky

Who dare come with me?

In the language of wings
