even
with a million peace marchers
in
washington
moratorium
day 1969
just
after
ten
thousand in the streets of chicago
hot
august 1968
scrambling
our bodies in front of the police
and
national guard
their
columns clubs bayonets
forcing
our retreat
jimmy
was wise beyond his years
into
the darkness of grant park
tear
gas sweat clinging
dripping
down through jesus sandals
hearts
and minds
