Hallelujah

spit-song slit-sided journal entries
the word freedom but
   half past the bravery it takes to spell it
        and no where near the bravery it takes
                to say it 

courage is a mad man’s practice
   he drives right off the cliff
      because he isn’t afraid to fly

hallelujah is for the spiritually privileged 
  if you can spell it you are spirit rich
     if you can’t your evolved
 
if you can’t even see the word 
    you have achieved enlightenment 

a full stop breath with no words or writing

no sound 
   a breath with no sound…..

now that’s courage
and that’s freedom

hallelujah.
