The Negro
With the trumpet at his lips
Has dark moons of weariness
Beneath his eyes
where the smoldering memory

from the trumpet at his lips
is honey
mixed with liquid fire

from the trumpet at his lips
is ecstasy
distilled from old desire-

about thighs
The negro
with the trumpet at his lips
has a head of vibrant hair
tamed down,
patent-leathered now
until it gleams
like jet-
were jet a crown
the music
from the trumpet at his lips
is honey
mixed with liquid fire
the rhythm
from the trumpet at his lips
is ecstasy
distilled from old desire-
