Patti Smith takes charge in Seattle/ Videos

Patti Smith and Lenny Kaye (TSHIT photos)

By Andy

Never forget

No way -- it's forever ingrained

Transcendent

*** 

Patti Smith owning the stage

Intense yet hopeful look upon her face

Piercing eyes

flooring the crowd

***

Voice, lyrics seared into your mind

Harsh yet soothing all at once

Dancing, prancing -- stomping 

Anger yet exuberance 

flowing throughout her being

***

Things may be screwed at times (seems always), 

but we will rise above the dross

Raise your fist, arms and voice 

(against the motherfuckers, she roars)

Now!
