I stole a line

We were talking about the places

Where some of us have been and some have not

And what our world could be

We were talking about balance

Peace and the Black condition

We were talking about dreams and about theft

We were talking about Dostoievski and life’s miseries and tragedies

Did we laugh?

Oh not enough!

What do you want what do you need

When you come undone
