MISSISSIPPI

Oh, what sorrow!

Oh, what pity!

Oh, what pain

That tears and blood

Should mix like rain

And terror come again

To Mississippi.

Again?

Where has terror been?

On vacation? Up North?

In some other section

Of the Nation,

Lying low, unpublicized,

Masked—with only

Jaundiced eyes showing

Through the mask?

What sorrow, pity, pain,

That tears and blood

Still mix like rain

In Mississippi.

KU KLUX

They took me out

To some lonesome place.

They said, “Do you believe

In the great white race?”
