More From Lucy Larcom

Somebody/ anybody sing a black girl's song bring her out to know herself to know you but sing her rhythms carin/ struggle/ hard times sing her song of life she's been dead so long closed in silence so long she doesn't know the sound of her own voice her infinite beauty she's half-notes scattered without rhythm/ no tune sing her sighs sing the song of her possibilities sing a righteous gospel let her be born let her be born & handled warmly.
Girl Song Struggle
God laughs on two occasions. he laughs when the physician says to the patient's mother, 'don't be afraid, mother; i shall certainly cure your boy.' god laughs, saying to himself, 'i am going to take his life, and this man says he will save it!' the physician thinks he is the master, forgetting that god is the master. god laughs again when two brothers divide their land with a string, saying to each other, 'this side is mine and that side is yours.' he laughs and says to himself, 'the whole universe belongs to me, but they say they own this portion or that portion.'
Mother Brother Boys
The soul will bring forth person if god laughs into her and she laughs back to him. to speak in parable, the father laughs into the son and the son laughs back to the father; and this laughter breeds liking and liking breeds joy, and joy begets love, and love begets person, and person begets the holy ghost.
Laughter Father Son
Someone once asked me why people sing. i answered that they sing for many of the same reasons the birds sing. they sing for a mate, to claim their territory, or simply to give voice to the delight of being alive in the midst of a beautiful day. perhaps more than the birds do, humans hold a grudge. they sing to complain of how grievously they have been wronged, and how to avoid it in the future. they sing to help themselves execute a job of work. they sing so the subsequent generations won’t forget what the current generation endured, or dreamed, or delighted in.
Beautiful Jobs Voice
So often, we blame other people when, really, the problem is right down in here. i'm not happy. i don't know what's wrong. if i just had another job, i could be happy. if i just get married, i would be happy. well if i just wasn't married, i would be happy. well, if i just had some kids, i'll be happy. i'll be happy when these kids finally grow up and get out of here. if i had a bigger house, i would be happy. well, i got a big house. now if i just had a maid to clean, i'd be happy. well, now if i just had a maid i could get along with better, i'd be happy.

I felt sick. buying kisten’s and my safety from piscary was so wrong. but it was either that or deal with a demon, and i’d rather keep my soul clean and let my morals get dingy.
Safety Sick Soul
Like journalists. the police have an extremely sick sense of humor, very guarded, very private, very male, which they need to survive on an everyday level. i don't think anyone has ever managed to tap that on the screen - it would actually be too shocking.

Everybody gets sick; everybody has had a problem with insurance or the prescription drugs they're supposed to be taking or an elderly parent who needs care.
