Insight Pregnant Original 08 08 2009 Poem by Lee B. Mack

Insight pregnant with omnipresent power
Fescue copter winged shoot with seedling
Spikes toward the locomotive sun
Inside the female womb and auditorium
Birthing the acoustic art of revelation
Of New Orleans jazz -I walk away from
The open air arena war memorials toward
Listening posts on the hillside green
Dominant fescue runs and tuffs of
Maryland rye grasses hardy and strong
Inside parks and halls wall the musical conception
The blood of breath waters the roots of life
Eructs to surface to father the fatherless
Dinner is served under tent catered buffets and
Hosted by the gated women let out to display
Dimples let on as half smiles of matron age
Keb Mo plays the secondary metropol to
Cosby’s standup on the center stage
An old Richard Pryor comedy album
Spins on the mobile radio –these are the
Pregnant ghosts premature and artificial
Insemination revelation made –the ear to hear
Listen as the piano roll plays imitations of soul.
Unrehearsed before the maestro of spirit let on.
