songs

 

stranger’s friendly gesture, an associate’s

gracious act, a closer relative’s kind word

a gentle smile are those that indeed

in me provoke a song of delight



a simple betrayal, a calculated

crucifying, a determined denial

and with that an atrocious desertion

in me provoke a song of protest



words of wisdom, a provocative thought

a challenging message, an alternative

vision for that poor perishing universe

these provoke a song of inspiration
