Southern Mansion Poplars are standing there still as death and ghosts of dead men meet their ladies walking two by two beneath the shade and standing on the marble steps. There is a sound of music echoing through the open door and in the field there is another sound tinkling in the cotton: chains of bondsmen dragging on the ground The years go back with an iron clank ,a hand is on the gate ,a dry leaf trembles on the wall. Ghosts are walking. They have broken roses down and poplars stand there still as death.
Reconnaissance After the cloud embankments, the lamentation of wind and the starry descent into time, we came to the flashing waters and shaded our eyes from the glare. Alone with the shore and the harbor, the stems of the cocoanut trees, the fronds of silence and hushed music, we cried for the new revelation and waited for miracles to rise. Where elements touch and merge, where shadows swoon like outcasts on the sand and the tried moment waits, its courage gone— there were we in latitudes where storms are born
Aaron Douglas, 1936 Into Bondage
Vitamin R (Leading Us Along) Some will learn; many do. Cover up or spread it out. Turn around, had enough, Pick and choose or pass it on. Buying in, heading for Suffer now or suffer then. It's bad enough I want the fear... need the fear [Pre-Chorus] Cause he's alone (he has become) He's alone (he has become) [Chorus:] Well if they're making it, making it Then they're pushing it, pushing it And they're leading us along The hassle of all the screaming fits That panic makes remorse After all, what's the point? Course levitation is possible. If you're a fly; achieved and gone Theres time for this and so much more. It's typical - create a world A special place of my design To never cope or never care just use the key [Pre-Chorus] Cause he's alone (he has become) He's alone (he has become)
Vitamin R (Leading Us Along)[Chorus]Well if they're making it, making itThen they're pushing it, pushing itAnd they're leading us along Over and Over a slave Became Over and Over a slave Became Over and Over a slave Became Over and Over a slave Became [Chorus x2]
