our heart paradiddles a three-by-two,
our eyes swim and we shake . . .
huge history heaves and we push against it shoving a Behemoth,
a Leviathan, a weight so large that Luna blushes . . .
water-cannons gush,
freedom rides, riders rush,
stonewalls
crumble,
churches burn,
workers die, tree limbs cry
listen . . .
LBJ, JFK, MLK - ?Que? . . . ?Que? . . . ?Que?
. . .yes, yes, yes - - we can, we did, we do!
