Marvin X poem: Fetus
Mama, please don't kill me
don't you see
I got your eyes
Mama, please don't kill me
don't you see
I got my daddy's hair, head feet
Mama, please don't flush me down the toilet
I might be a prophet
come to save the world
Mama, please
don't kill me.
--Marvin X
from Liberation Poems for North American Africans, Marvin X, Al Kitab Sudan Press (Black Bird Press), 1983.
