only 3 of 100 black boys
entering kindergarten will graduate college—
in the night sky, shooting stars
every day a black person
under 20 years old commits suicide—
plucked magnolia blossom's funereal perfume
a black man is 700% more likely
than a white man to be sentenced to prison—
scattered thundershowers in may
every 3 minutes
a black child is born into poverty—
pine needles line the forest floor
