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
