A Conversation about Whiteness Wedding dresses, clouds in a summer sky Those new tenny-runners in junior high The towels the Navy issued all of us Liquid Paper™ for covering typos Wild geese winging the seasons, moved by God The much-prayed pages in MeeMaw’s Bible A sidewalk made playground with colored chalk A blank page in the typewriter positioned Ready, waiting for the next Langston Hughes To write about rivers, or about…you
