Rooftop Chants
The Widow Wyile
chants from her rooftop
calling to the one love
at the centre of the
universe
four directions
centre of being
inner light—
she likes to think
she hears Benjamin
Zephaniah
Santamaria
chanting back
from rooftops in
London Mexico
from mountains
high or low
the arc of om
shooting star
between
old moon and mother
earth
night and day
spirit sounds
linking all
beings
for good
