You.You think you want me outta your life?We both know that's a lie.Sure I'll give some space to fly.But without me long, you die.This is our complicated relationship. Face it.
the white man
has two hands
buys nothing
but name brands
wears jordans
he thinks he can
but no, that is for the black man
popo oppress
cause blacks much stress
AFTER 12 HOURS
THE FUNERAL:
brothers accused of removing dead sister from coffin.
a ceramic angel stands over the destroyed remains.
MOON AT 11 O’CLOCK
HANGS LIKE A GOLDEN CRADLE
ON HER RIVERBEDS,
Dead legs dragging,
She'll cut them off
To save the whole,
Sad but not sorry,
Wishing for wings.
Desperate to fly because walking here was fatal.
