    In the Quarter of the Negroes

    Where the doors are doors of paper

    Dust of dingy atoms

    Blows a scratchy sound.

    A<strike></strike>morphous jack-o-Lanterns caper

    And the wind wont wait for midnight

    For fun to blow doors down.

    By the river and the railroad

    With fluid far-off goind

    Boundaries bind unbinding

    A whirl of whisteles bl<strike></strike>owing.

    No trains or steamboats going--

    Yet Leontynes unpag.

    In the Quarter of the Negroes

    Where the doorknob lets in Lieder

    More than German ever bore,

    Her yesterday past grandpa--

    Not of her own doing--

    In a pot of creens

    Is gently stewing.

    Pushcarts fold and unfold

    In a supermarket sea.

    Ater find out, mama,

    Where is the colored laundromat

    Since we move dup to Mount Vernon.

    I begind the paper doors

    on the old iron stove whats cooking?

    Whats smelling, Leontyne?

    Lieder, lovely Lieder

    And a leaf of creen.

    Lovely Lieder, Leontyne.

    You knht at Christmas

    They asked me if my blaess,

    Would it rub off?

    I said, Ask your mama.

    Dreams and nightmares!

    Nightmares, dreams, oh!

    Dreaming that the Negroes

    Of the South have taken over--

    Voted all the Dixiecrats

    Right out of po<strike></strike>wer--

    es the COLORED HOUR:

    Mar<s>.９９liｂ.</s>tin Luther King is Governor of Geia,

    Dr. Rufus Clement his Chief Adviser,

    A. Philip Randolph the High Grand Worthy.

    In white pillared mansions
