african american poetry

the little pitiful, worn, laughing faces
all down the years
renew the vision of delight
dark-eyed
up from the meadows rich with corn
the ancient songs
they in the darkness gather and ask
under a spreading chestnut tree
as it
see i give myself to you
awful truths these be
sing again the song you sung
