Under the denuding eye
of the ever-alert sky
we invented languages
of peace
Under the prosaic drone
of jaded time
We rendered neoteric melodies
Under the threat
of heat-stroke
We danced
to incredible chants
Under the influence
of vague expectations
our lips released boiling stories
Now that we sit
around the fireplace
of freedom
only shameful silence
emerged from the hollowness
of our ever-open mouths
