~<•>~ ~<•>~ • The day Calling us out Out of the hovels •• The simple decencies have been forgotten • The train Leaving at dawn Shall be empty Again •• We are still lynching negroes -- She said " **** me " NO ! WAIT ! We're supposed to tell each other I LOVE YOU FIRST ! THEN **** me •• All the ambulances Going to the hospital All the hearses going To the morgue (I see you here ) •• The pregnancy The universe in its joy Asked you for something You said --- NO WAY ! •• So many promises to keep So many  claims Of hearts being broken •• She walks lonely through the town Look ! A young boy He joins her here
