imagination isthe bridge between the things we know for sure and the things we need to believe when our world becomes unbearable -staceyann chin
june jordan made griot eyes
at me in a perfect recent dream;
as i lectured to university students,
her wink put this poem in my mouth:
see, social change
and self-affirmation--
these things go hand in hand.
you cannot dare to take
steps forward
if you do not believe
in feet.
wherever you want
to see the world go, imagine
a world already there.
may the people say amen, Lenelle.
