I long to remake my Africa
in symmetry with America
as a fuel to remake the world
which exists with just a word
I crave to heal the earth
in defiance of the dearth
of man’s sane premonition
which leads to annihilation
with my heart…
to do my part
with my mind…
in all I can find
with my soul
in definite goal
with my bones…
in silent tones
with my brain…
refuting drain
with my hands…
in hungry lands
with my voice…
in every choice
with my blood…
in desert flood
with my pen…
in lion’s den
with my poem…
in every realm
with my breadth…
at mortal length
with faith in God
So help me Lord.
