Answered prayers
Don’t need another Jesus
…to die for our sins…
How many millions died
…crossing the ocean
Between here
…and Africa…
How many more
…were martyred
…there…
Here
…and
between…
Yesterday, today
…and tomorrow…
how many
...others
will there be
Tortured histories,
rise from the places
Where our ancestors
…have fallen…
Stars
…in the heavens…
Peering
…through
space+time…
Collecting
Those energies
of our collective
...Souls...
…recycling the universe…
As they have
Since time began...
To the stars
…and back…
Recall …our souls…
…answering
Our prayers
…w/love
