Blind Willie Johnson
sings his song
i hear the words
i ask his question
"Won't somebody tell me
Answer if you can
Won't somebody tell me
Tell me what is the soul of a man?"

late afternoon sun
painting in the Badlands
upon millions of years of memory
piled high as ash and bone
wont somebody tell me
what is the soul of a man?
Soul of Man
they say as life goes on
we become the face weve earned
maybe we become
stardust appropriately aligned
but tell me if you can
what is the soul of a man?

scratching out art
my ideas scrambled
by a neolithic God
im hunting for food
looking for shelter
i remember being chased
i remember protecting her
from some far away
tribe
the Milky Way

the milky way emerges
its was there all the time
hidden by the ball of fire
high up in the sky
when the starlight
arrives it finds my eyes
& i receive
a secret message
from far away
that time is
a fraud
its all here right now
Soul of Man #2
Starlight passes
thru soul fire
arriving at nightfall
manifesting as stardust
gone dreamtime
made sublime
by a sunset
ephiphany
Soul of Man
