Amiri Baraka, Leroi Jones Amiri Baraka
Lord Haw Haw (as Pygmy) #37
(from Transbluesency, Selected Poems 1961-1995)

                                                All Blues
                                                Miles

We were here

                                    before

                      God

                      We

                               invented

Him.

 

              Why?

That's a good/ god damn
            question.
