Let us not forget our songs
that sang us in our times

of powerlessnesss,
swirling in our sacrums like

soul’s Charybdis
as our legs walked to their beats

because our hearts were
muffled AM stations,

hollow in their antiquated mono.
May we thank them on the daily

for their visions of crashing
waves and changing tides

when all we felt: feedback, static,
our own cluttered airwaves.
