I hear screaming from underground
unchain unloosen the bounds
bring up what you can't keep down
make it sneeze give it something to eat
parched from dessert heat
give the funk back the beat
give the win to the defeat
are you wit me stop lying
you're not with me
entertained by a different kind
of entertainment don't ask
can't name it
dance like a robot
move like you pop lock
grab a potholder
before you drop that hot pot
on top of that hungry child
ready to eat something good
like soul food comforts the sol
something Korean on the stove
pressure cooker bout to blow
bus stop outside my window
steam rising from the humidity
smelling the breath of the community
