We Have Come Back To You Poem by David Ugba

We Have Come Back To You



1

We have come back to you
O hub of creation
Clothed with these songs of repentance
The dark calico of sin
Were stripped at the rebirth of sun light


We have come back again into your chamber
O guardian of the water that began us
At the morning of recreation
Sun bird sings back to the waters
When darkness robs her power
The infant scares the earth face with cries
When her eyes by fear is sealed
it did not slump dead

Let the blood that began us
Loose his anger to the waters
Call back the heat of the beginnings
guide teeth away from decay
We await the growth of dreams

O we are back in the sunlit chamber
Of golden dreams
With hot tears of repentance
The tribal mark of our rebirth
At this threshold of reveries
O let the oil pass
between fingers to wet our request for sweet eternity

2
We have come back to you
guardian of the beginnings
whose gushing blood
bears us to the light chamber again

Forgiveness buried deep in your legend
may this flowing blood
gush us into sanity




bear me soft Hub of creation
words felt by arms in your alter
perceived by the hidden antenna of dreams
guardian of the beginnings
split the robe of ignorance
Sun our sun’s face
