Full Break Room
Last night that us, outside shouting,
One word then another word.
Sound was inside me and sound outside.
One tree cut down, trunk piled, sprouting leaves, spreading even in death.
What is underneath sound?
What lives through sound?
What holds our history?
We wonder in courtyards, in bed, in the breakroom, with strangers, with you.
Chanting one word, then another
Sounds inside, sounds outside us.
Turning towards what is now soundless
Hearing beyond cricks and cracks of our language to silence.
Hearing beyond cricks and cracks of accents
To silence.
We try to capture, hold and keep
The fallen trees of our people, yet
Downed trees, piled dead, are still living.
Living as decay, living as change,
Brittle to soft, rot to seed
Sprouting as us, in silence.
We carry truth, nothing but. You, now me, that us
The seen, the unseen
The understood, the misunderstood.
Last night that us sprouting, even in death,
planting one word then another,
Sound inside and sounds outside.
Ancestor cut down, the history of us, that us.
Turning to what is soundless.
Budding as us
What is underneath sound?
What is lives through sound?
What holds our history?
We wonder in courtyards, in bed, in the breakroom, with strangers, with you.
CODA:
Living as change itself
Budding in silence.
