Page 14 Street Roots • June 8 -1 4 , 2 0 1 8 Street Poetry The Cape of Good Hope Body Language by Avendor by Michone Nettles, AKA "Black Diamond" The man on the motorcycle rides through the night, he’s a summertime prince in humankind’s light. While looking into the eyes that reflect oneness with all See yourself on the front lines of life and death! Each of us so different, and a lot alike at the same time. We came from another planet. Space travel has always been here and there. The silent vibrations can’t or could substitute words unspoken Eye contact tells the whole story without a word said. Bodies have a whole language of their own. If you can read it you could understand it. Body talk, When I move, body talk When I sit, body talk. Sleep, body talk Can you hear body talk? Can I hear body walk? Body walk, talk while you walk. Walk while you talk. It’s a beautiful life. Only get so far down when we come up. Like the elevator. What floor are you going to? The girl at the register greets you with a smile, she loves you and she’ll be an angel in a while. The tiger lies down beside a waterfall, he will get photographed and become a cause for us all. • » • « And the insane who against their fate were rebellin’, will return and be greeted with a hero’s welcome.
