Song of the Grass-whip Valentine

Snip-snip-snip
the lobotomy the
vasectomy of the
nailery of slavery
in Thomas Jefferson’s
capacious mind the
flown circuits where
neurons meet their
waiting dripping backs
blades of grass
the only truly
free man ever
at Monticello was
a slave who
never stopped
plotting to escape
