Rosa Parks Is On The Bus | Poem

 
 

Rosa Parks Is On The Bus

 

if Avram makes

a safety pin the larva

and coat hanger the pupa

of the bicycle

then history tells us brave, frail Rosa is the  larva

Malcolm X the pupa

of RUN DMC

the solitary tired woman

a straight line to the future

on the bus Ken Kesey sang

on the corner Miles countered

but now we just walk this  way

- Ken Peters
 

to Ken   /   to Moongate
