BLACK ODE
Your beauty is a thunder
and I am set a wandering—a wandering
Deafened
Down twilight tin-can alleys
And moist sounds
"OOo wee Baby, Look what you could get if your name
was Willie”
Oh, to dip your words like snuff.
A laughter, black and streaming
And I am come a being—a ...[text shortened]... r bed and walk.
You been heavy burdened”
Oh, to lick your love like tears.

Byways and bygone
And lone nights long
Sun rays and sea waves
And star and stone
Manless and friendless
No cave my home
This is my torture
My long nights, lone
—Maya Angelou

Are you saying that Pulp Fiction was not inspired!!??!! And therefore inerrant...
as some, but the performances were exceptional and Tarantino is a genius, so the subtle humor,
clever segues, and cultural references were a nice treat (although most were over my head).

It's a Catholic school -- you just gotta look cute and hope for forgiveness 😉
Actually, I had a sixth grader once who didn't just plagiarize from a web site ... she turned in the printout from the web site complete with the web address still on it. She couldn't understand how I knew she didn't write it!

Name three things that Nixon agriculture secretary Earl Butz said were the only things that Blacks wanted in life. Jesus wasn't one of them. And you thought Imus was bad.
