michael harper - dear john, dear coltrane كلمات أغنية

s_x fingers toes
in the marketplace
near your father’s church
in hamlet, north carolina—
witness to this love
in this calm fallow
of these minds
there is no substitute for pain:
genitals gone or going
seed burned out
you tuck the roots in the earth
turn back, and move
by river through the swamps
singing: a love supreme, a love supreme;
what does it all mean?
loss, so great each black
woman expects your failure
in mute change, the seed gone
you plod up into thе electric city—
your song now crystal and
the bluеs. you pick up the h_rn
with some will and blow
into the freezing night:
a love supreme, a love supreme—

dawn comes and you cook
up the thick sin ‘tween
impotence and death, fuel
the tenor sax cannibal
heart, genitals, and sweat
that makes you clean—
a love supreme, a love supreme—
why you so black?
cause i am
why you so funky?
cause i am
why you so black?
cause i am
why you so sweet?
cause i am
why you so black?
cause i am
a love supreme, a love supreme:

so sick
you couldn’t play naima
so flat we ached
for song you’d concealed
with your own blood
your diseased liver gave
out its purity
the inflated heart
pumps out, the tenor kiss
tenor love:
a love supreme, a love supreme—
a love supreme, a love supreme—

- michael harper
