family dinner

my ebony skin, and hair
his white family,
curiously looking me over
No one is free.......if you disagree, try to skate board down the street....

... a lot said in this poignant write ...

...very nice ... and well said...

...jeanne...
... and his words purge up and outward,
expelled and onward through desert dust swallowed,
sands he says that gorge on simple sensibilities.
And, now he spits fragments, grit, extended vowels and elongated syllables
over cracked lips. Their sounds fall
piling round his boots…
