Mississippi – 1955(To the Memory of Emmett

Till)Oh what sorrow!

Oh what painThat tears and bloodShould mix like rain

And terror come againTo MississippiCome again?

Where has terror been?On vacation? Up North?

In some section Of the nation,

Lying low, unpublicized?Masked-with only

Jaundiced eyesShowing through the mask?

Oh what sorrow, Pity, pain,

That tears and bloodShould mix like rain

In Mississippi!And terror, fetid hot,

Yet clammy coldRemain.
