BLACKWOMAN


            will define herself. naturally. will

            talk/walk/live/&love her images. her
            beauty will be. the only way to be is

            to be. blackman take her. u don't need
            music to move; yr/movement toward her
            is music. & she'll do more than dance.



         Wynton


         that boy musta been listenin to Pops
         he plays trumpet real good
         just like Satchmo when he hot,

         my grandfather announced.
         I agreed and more.




         the trumpet seems like it is
         sewn to his lips

         cause he plays like
         Sterling Brown reading his poems.

         and we all know poetry comes from God.
