A poem a day for 2015 - day 33 - Love

Bound together by revolution
By love bigger than fists
Open as the African sky
Dance
Feel this blood run through arms
Hot as blue fire
He call me Fly
'Cause my mama name me Robin
See these wings so flutter through the trees
I call him Water
'Cause nothin' strong as he
Know all the ways I cry
Remember every turn in my sleep
We know war
We know white cops and black babies
We know fear
We know happy and history and hers
Home is my feet in his lap
His stories in my journals
We so share
So give
So remember
We so poem
Together
