(pic taken by my camera phone. i took this after her encore. she came out to test out a song she wrote in the hotel. check out the hotel pad in her hand. an artist never stops. lovely!)
untitled (inspired by she)
last night a testimony of words
echoed through wombs
waves of blues met
earlobes hips and fingers
pursed as if
waiting for a savior
a philly jawn
honeyed and aged
urgent like
rain in the dessert
weaving stories through time
bringing us
closer
to ourselves

LOVE HER. She was so awesome when she came to St. Louis on her vol.2 tour. Can't wait til she comes again. She did two encores and had us cheering and singing for 3 hours.
I LOVE this new CD.
I LOVE Jill Scott! She is so authentic, and her style is her own. I wish I could go see her, but no one ever comes to where I live, so that's a bummer.
Glad you had a good time!
i know she saaaaaannnnngggg.....
Jill is so beautiful and talented, I can't wait to see her someday in concert...
