Late in the night
Late in the night with my family
My mother
My niece, my son
I saw a woman
Standing on the railing of a bridge
Holding onto a light pole
Light
Holding best as she could
Thinking
About...
I screamed
My niece
My son
My mother
We pulled to the side to say prayer for the woman
On a bridge
On Wardlow
Above the flood control
A black woman
With the saddest eyes I have ever seen
Wait, I screamed
I love you, was all I could think to say
My mother called the police
Who showed up
Thank God
In the name of sweet Jesus
Thank God
Wait, I said
I love you
Was all I could think to say"

Pak Topik menjahitnya kopiah
Kopiah dijahit Beldu yang utuh
Wabillahi taufik walhidayah
Wassalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
