Sanctus Ventriloquus Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

Sanctus Ventriloquus



An otherworldly sound!
No one heard it anywhere
Until from my belly

An ungodly voice discharges
Followed by leaded silence.
Then another voice booms,

Let there be light.
My lips freeze.
All sights fix on me.

I cannot sustain the stares
and from within my gut
I belch, Amin.

And the crowds shout,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle!
God speaks in mysterious ways.
