Adrienne Rich - The Burning of Paper Instead of Children

I was in danger of verbalizing my moral impulses out of existence.

                                               – Fr Daniel Berrigan, on trial in Baltimore

 

1.

 

My neighbor, a scientist and art-collector, telephones me in a state of violent emotion. He tells me that my son and his, aged eleven and twelve, have on the last day of school burned a mathematics textbook in the backyard. He has forbidden my son to come to his house for a week, and has forbidden his own son to leave the house du...

From The Eye of Photography:

I imagined drawing on a black sheet of paper with a white marker. Black is the negation of colour, it represents the absolute limit beyond which there is nothing, it is the “no”, as opposed to the “yes” of white, white is the virgin page on which you can still write the story, black is the final conclusion.

You are my angel
Come from way above to bring me love
Her eyes, she's on the dark side
Neutralize every man in sight

 

To love you, love you, love you

 

You are my angel
Come from way above

 

To love you, love you, love you

Langston Hughes - I, Too

I, too, sing America.

 

I am the darker brother.

They send me to eat in the kitchen

When company comes,

But I laugh,

And eat well,

And grow strong.

 

Tomorrow,

I’ll be at the table

When company comes.

Nobody’ll dare

Say to me,

“Eat in the kitchen,”

Then.

 

Besides,

They’ll see how beautiful I am

And be ashamed—

 

I, too, am America.
