Rain Forest Lyrics


RAINFOREST
by Haki R. Madhubuti
You are forest rain

dense with life green colors

forever pulling the blue of life into you

see you walk and

I would burst rainwater into you

swim in & out of you

opening you like anxious earthquakes

uncontrollable, but beautiful & dangerous.
Get with this woman come

fire frozen beauty,

men cannot sleep around you

your presence demands attention

demands notice


demands touch & motion & communication.
You are runner

swift like warm wind hurricanes

fast like stolen firebirds

& you disrupt the silence in me

make me speak memories long forgotten & unshared

secrets uttered in strange storms,

deep, full sounds reserved for magical lovers.
Listen runner

I’ve shared pain with you,

I have commented on future worlds to you,

I have let you touch the weak & strength of me,

I have tasted the tip of your ripeness &

kissed sweat from your middle.

I have bit into your mouth and

sucked the life-forces from your insides
And I know you. Understand you.

I have shared books and travel and music

and growth with you. 

sweet knows honey & I know you.

under salted water tides

& running against polluted earth
I’ve tried to be good to you woman

tried to care beyond words

care beyond distant spaces

beyond sensitive phases & quiet lies

beyond cruel music & false images.
Indeed, you are an original high & dream maker

& true men do not try to limit you.
Listen woman Black

I do not wish to dominate your dreams

or obstruct your vision.

Trust my emotion, feel.

Know that I am near & with you

& will cut the cold of winter winds to reach you.
you are delicate bronze

in spring, summers & special autumns

you are forest rain

dark & runner & hurricane-black

frequently,

I say frequently I bring you

midnight rain.
(Repeat)
Listen woman Black

I do not wish to dominate your dreams

or obstruct your vision.

Trust my emotion, feel.

Know that I am near & with you

& will cut the cold of winter winds to reach you.
you are delicate bronze

in spring, summers & special autumns

you are forest rain

dark & runner & hurricane-black

frequently,

I say frequently I bring you

midnight rain.
