P. 19
Buried in state flags
South of the Dixie line
Flying on Capitol Grounds
South of North Carolina
Hanging high
A recolored One
In an Art Space
South of Houston
For a Remembering of Cries of Color
And a Flag of Treason and Terror
And before this flag
There were many
Lost in a Committee
Lost on the road to defeat
Lost in the imagination of southern swamps
Of flat Stars,
Of black Blues,
Bloody Reds
And washed out Whites
For a Remembering of Cries of Color
And a Flag of Treason and Terror
And before this flag
There were many
Lost in a Committee
Lost on the road to defeat
Lost in the imagination of southern swamps
Of flat Stars,
African American Confederate flag
Of black Blues,
Bloody Reds
And washed out Whites
