It was just about 7:00 when we woke up for the first time in our new home. We were forced to leave our old home back in Virginia by the KKK and forced to help with cooking, gardening, and cleaning around the white people’s house.

I laugh at the humour,Shown by Him,I laugh at the sorrow,Caused by Him,I laugh at the word of the law,Spelled all wrong,I laugh at the mighty storm,Held in my palmI laugh at the differences,Between everything,I laugh at the samenessIn the remaining.

The businessman yelled in fustera...

Me puse a ver este atardecer cuyo color escarlata llenaba la aurora, un ardiente sol iluminaba los vestigios y ruinas de nuestras ya muertas culturas humanas, oh como anhelo haber visto como incoaron nuestras propias a materializarse, y estas condensarse para crear lo que imaginamos y deseamos.
