The Snowflake
I followed the path
Of a single snowflake
Landing on the roof
A bit of white standing out
Against the dark gray
And I wondered how many
Millions more would fall today

Jimmy
In politics judged too gentle
yet not swayed by martial words
He could not tolerate a world
where children shivered in cold
knew a hearth meant hope
and gave gentle correction to us all
He never looked to lead by voice
but chose helping hands over words
He was always Jimmy to us, never James

“Business!” cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. “Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business.

Poet Nikki Giovanni has died (1943-2024)
From "Sub-Rosa":
and I really hope no white person ever has cause
to write about me
because they never understand
Black love is Black wealth and they’ll
probably talk about my hard childhood
and never understand that
all the while I was quite happy

"There are children throwing snowballs here
Instead of throwing heads
They're busy building toys
And absolutely no one's dead
There's frost on every window
Oh, I can't believe my eyes
And in my bones I feel the warmth
That's coming from inside." - The Nightmare Before Christmas
