Peter H. Clark,


“We protest against the colored man being listed in the assets of the Republican party as a voting machine, which simply does the work of its master, and is then shelved until next election, as is the case in Ohio.” Peter H. Clark, Cincinnati black activist and the nation's 'first Black Socialist,' Dayton Evening Herald, 22 September 1873.

from Focus.



the world expands
you in you
more than uproars
more than this
breath in the tremulous
morning's back

geese call rank
and file
sky-door
door-sky
adornments
fall forward
with fancy

and then not
so much more
I am the
bruised moon
wanting
your smile and
feet again

let the cold
unfold
insensate smuggles
you have been
breathing all day
let me
tidy your floor
