Tonight all secrets are told
The stories unfold
Tonight one scripture one verse
all truths unearth
Tonight one light
One table
Tonight non-fiction non-fable
Two men set out to achieve
What all others disbelieve
The rhetoric of life
The black mans plight
A key to survival
Tonight
All sounds are mute
spoken symbols transmute
Into things that ring and chime
Into a soul sublime
subliminal messages and notes
The philosophers quote
The philosopher's stone
Blink and our history is gone
Tonight I drop the sheraid
All roads are paved For an autumn walk
Perception is fraught
Tonight I'm Liberated
In Christ inebriated
The undertone is set
The receiver receives the point
Tonight will be the best night yet

You had me read these lines over and over again...
"Tonight all secrets are told

There is something so deep and so intense about it. Nique, keep on writing and I'll keepon reading.
Oh, I read and read and read and I can't decide which one is my favorite! Your poems really touch me, I'm so glad I found this blog! :)
