Sweet Songs

Sweet songs, you said

Well, better come again, my man

And did they?

I mean, they turn it in

On a rail ratio

Like the sun that shine on those

That are miths of the steel unborn

In this hour of our great need

You cross aside the return

Of mandolins and tambourines and twinkling bells

And triangles and cymbals

And they sided in on many news

From fellow senders as I slept

Taking me unaware, tripping, blowing my mind

Sarah Fabio: Poet with a strong line of black musicians

Magicians

Don't fight the feeling

On the Congas, Big Brother Cyril Leslie Fabio III

Solemnly mine

Universal man, thinking, feeling

Nothing, teaching and learning

Rapping with the guys

Wild solo, cramps hands

In a communion, solely mine

Sister Sarah Webster Fabio: Poet

Yeah! I mean I still hit those fun bells

Those wheel one bells

Distant now, they're near

Like a sound they draw

And I know soon now

The sweet songs are gonna pour like rain

From our loved one's souls

One more time, yeah, yeah, yeah!

I mean, right on, right on!

One more time, right on!
