Breaking da news

They knows the news
Afore it happens
Gonna

Re-vo-lu-tionize
De government.

Follow the leader
Pied Piper
Lures
Vermin
En
Children
Which
Got you
In a lather?

Pay your 30 silver
Join ma tour
Dem dirty
Ottawa streets
Shure
Hide
Sum secrets
Cause dirt…
She’s got a long memory.
Old as stories
Each note
Medicated

Thought Sesame Street
Was documentary
“Wanna buy a letter?”
Still think of Vanna,
To try to remember
Vowel
Or
CONSANANT?

A-E-I-O-U words
But the kids got wise
Details don’t matter
When fire is at the door
Who’s got time to spin the wheel?

Gotta reclaim
Our places
Our people
Our monsters
Our songs.

I seed the future
Flute
Turns fife*
Gather peoples
To make news
They can’t imagine yet.
