Ode To Dress

ALONG A FIELD OF WHITE
SEVEN AMERICANS WITH RED FEATHERS
SEVEN RED FEATHERED AMERICANS
PLACED WITHIN THE TV BELLY A GREAT BLACK BIRD
BLACK
BLACK BIRD
BLACK INDIAN
BLACK INDIAN RISES TO THE OCCASION
BLACKER THAN ANY OTHERS
FACED RED
THE MOOD WAS WEATHER
SNOW AND THUNDER
RED
RED
RED AGAIN
ALONG THE FIELD
THE SEVEN AMERICANS
THE SEVEN AMERICANS JUST HAPPENED TO KNOW POETRY
TALKING WORDS AS THEY WALKED
SEVEN WORDS WITH WHITE CHALK
MARKED
“See! The Black ones must dance aligned!”
MIRROR THEIR FACES
1	2	3
PAINT THEM RED
4	5	6
BLOOD
7
BLACKER THAN ANY OTHERS
LIKE WHITE THUNDER
BLACK INDIAN RISES TO THE OCCASION
MARKED WITH CHARCOAL
SOME SIGN FROM THE FIRE
THE BLUE FIRE
CARRIES SEVEN RED FEATHERS FROM HIS MEMORY

ALL IS POETRY
