...again. A line from a heart-tugging poem entitled Prison Chant by Marilyn Buck. Here it is:

Cassandra is on the phone
her screams bounce off walls
staccato chant
Jesusfathergod
Jesusfathergod
Maurice listen to me
Stop listen to me
listen
listen
you must be responsible
I'm not there
take care of your sister
help her
I don't care
she's young
you're grown
20 is grown
I'm sorry you must
be responsible
I'm not there
Let me talk to her
LISA LISA
Jesusfathergod
Stop
listen to me
listen to your brother
TIME OUT
what's going on
Stop STOP STOP
Jesusfathergod
I'm sorry

no the phone has cut me off
I need more time
please let me call again
I know you're next
please
please Jesusfathergod
I must call back
I'm going to call again
I know it's your turn
you have to wait

Maurice I'm sorry
I'm not there
what can I do
I know your brother's
dead
yes I told
I had to
to come home
yes I'm still here
you're there
you're alive
you must be responsible
I'm not there
I'm still not there

Marilyn Buck is an Anti-Imperialist political prisoner. She is imprisoned for her anti-imperialist actions carried out in support of national liberation, women's liberation, social and economic justice. In 1985 she was captured and and faced 4 separate court trials. She was charged with conspiracy to support and free PP/POWs and to support the New Afrikan Independence struggle through expropriations. In 1988 she was indicted for conspiracy to protest and alter government policies through use of violence against government and military buildings and received an additional 10 years for conspiracy to bomb the Capitol.

And that concludes my lesson for the day. Thank you. Thank you very much.
