Protest in San Francisco

 

Watched a silence

sweep the

city watched it

swell a narrow

street heard ten

thousand

make the

silence with their

hesitating

feet never heard

a louder silence let it

ring

from wall to

wall: let no

boy

fall.

 

At some new

forsaken

barricade Plei

Mi or on

Chu

Pong a boy of any

color sleeps too

long he sleeps too long.
