In the Spirit of the Gracious and Compassionate
Creator of the Heavens and the Earth
the African American man
is stranded
in a perpetual
faggot-spasm
in a speech
on any subject at all
he suddenly
lurches into a
faggot-spasm
talking on-and-on
about faggots
a collective effort
falls apart
can’t you see him
he’s a faggot
so nothing
gets done
because of the
perpetual
faggot-spasm
we are still sodomized
by the middle passage
by the plantations
by the dances and whorehouses
white men having their way
with our women
while we play jazz
sodomy sodomy sodomy
sodomized by
the cotton club
smiling
playing jazz
smiling
while not allowed
in the front door
(only the back door)
sodomy sodomy sodomy
sodomized by the
black-face minstrels
laughing at us
while we are lynched
and physically
sodomized
on the chain gangs
and in the prisons
to this day
sodomizing ourselves
in our envy and resentment
of each other
and sodomized by
lethal police bullets
which seem to be
the only cure
for the faggot-spasm
