    Ladies Of Loucious Brown Road

    My strength on Loucious Brown Road

    are ladies who are my everyday heroes

    God in heaven knows where I would be

    If they never cared  what happened to me

    The young among you, know them well

    Strength you gain over time will prevail

    Katie, Jessie, Louella, Mary and Geraldean

    These precious five that’s no longer here

    For them, I offer up this special prayer.

    Thank you O  Lord for the opportunity

    To have grown up in this community

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
