Pat Parker (1944–1989)
My Lover Is a Woman I. my lover is a woman & when i hold her feel her warmth i feel good feel safe then—i never think of my family’s voices never hear my sisters say bulldaggers, queers, funny come see us, but don’t bring your friends it’s ok with us, but don’t tell mama it’d break her heart never feel my father turn in his grave never hear my mother cry Lord, what kind of child is this? II. my lover’s hair is blonde & when it rubs across my face it feels soft feels like a thousand fingers touch my skin & hold me and i feel good then—i never think of the little boy who spat & called me nigger never think of the policemen who kicked my body & said crawl never think of Black bodies hanging in trees or filled with bullet holes never hear my sisters say white folks hair stinks don’t trust any of them never feel my father turn in his grave never hear my mother talk of her backache after scrubbing floors never hear her cry Lord, what kind of child is this? - Pat Parker

bring city streets
with wine and blood
bring cops and guns
with dead bodies and prison" - #PatParker
