I know I’m stupid
I know I’m worthless
but I coulda been a star-
a stupid worthless star.
What I can't
be
I kill.

Can the light dying behind my eyes be
recorded in rhyme schemes?
I meet this page in the morning beating back death
trying to re-member.

..something like that make me feel what Rhonda, what Farrakhan, say - there is a god. But me when I think of it I'm more inclined to go with Shug in The Colour Purple. God ain' white, he ain' no Jew or Muslim, maybe he ain' even black, maybe he ain' even a 'he.' Even now I go downtown and see .. I see those men in vacant lot share one hot dog and they homeless, that's good as Jesus with his fish. I remember when I had my daughter, nurse nice to me too - all that is god.
