You, whose chanteys hummed my life alive, have withdrawn your music and lean inaudibly on the quiet slope of memory. O Shaker, why don't you sing? In the night noisy with street cries and the triumph of amorous insects, I focus beyond those cacophonies for the anthem of your hands and swelling chest, for the perfect harmonies which are your lips.
About Shaker, Why Don’t You Sing? Lyrical and cadent, dramatic and sometimes playful, these poems speak of love, longing, parting; of freedom and shattered dreams; of Saturday-night partying and the smells and sounds of Southern cities.
