SHE 5

(rap performance by Kids of the Queenie)

5

she be one of a lot
the only one i want i long
there are many of her sought
a thousand bodied throng

a fox-eyed thousand
voices families balls
milky-white teeth and keys
from the heart and gapers all

o honored gapers
snuff out your eyes at night
she goes to bed in thousands of beds
you’re taking the keys of delight

don’t open her up but cover her
away for hard labor
for her beauty’s favor!
you need a bit of vo-i-ce
i’ll life my head
and rejoice

she be one of a lot
the only one on earth
i got
no sky no sea bottom

she be
holy
sat
an
or a sad Holy Mother
come down from a painting
