NECESSARY TO DENY

NECESSARY TO DENY

couldn’t change the world
so redrew the map

found myself
          choirs within choirs
and so preaching
to all of them

turned
the globe upside down
to deconstruct,
decolonize,
     reverse the
missionary position

strew the land with
ever-fresh amendment
hoping
      (about to launch-pad
to the firmament) find

in those old runes
truth
    necessary to deny
