Exodus Electra
By Wendy K. Blackburn
brethren beckons you to join along some miresome tiresome song but I deny the lie served to me and lay me down upon the racque of love's bitter agonies and you mind me and bind me and shred me thin but I, though laid naked and bare shall prevail and win though I, am weak and waning with the moon the sun is my backbone and JAH is my tune! Tender this mender shall bring peace to you~ and I, though I lay a hopeless barren shrew shall rise again a melody of peace's perfect harmony and hope's ripened delicacy Love's bright warm June. And though I, I am sightless and bound, Faith be my braille and though I, I am lost though I am found strong though I am frail, I shall speak before judges without a waver in my tongue and JAH shall sign the pardon~ I shall display all my wicked and wretched deeds I shall itemize and cartarize my heart's broken needs. And when JAH ask me, "Shall I forgive him~ As I have forgiven thee?" I will turn to your blackness and say, "Lord set him free!" and I will humbly fall at your worn and leathered feet and weep tears of redemption and cries of defeat. ~And dry your ankles with my tresses and cling to your calves, and pray JAH stay forever and not saw us in half. Then~ though I, I revere you as my sovreign and King, I shall rises from the ashesof my cremation to sing! Beloved be my leader my commander and steed! Show me the white horse the unicorn that freed us to the heavens~the realm of the soul divine! A truth of eternal wonders crystaline! And I shall be your subject in your kingdom's crown and I shall be your queen though my pride I lay down~ and together as one forever with all infinite curiosities we shall love the longer the wonder of free!
