there is an ancient game of telephone
when men broach the topic of Henry Dumas they must
ejaculate, as solemnly as they may
"Henry Dumas was tragically killed in 1968 by a white New York City Transit Officer in a case of mistaken identity"
have you ever wondered about the most important lesson in the universe?
one so vital that you must take every precaution to ensure it is taught to all among us
mouths supposedly grow tired
but no mouths grow tired speaking of the passing of Henry Dumas
i don't suppose the death of Henry Dumas
is the most important lesson in world
and before the next mouth opens to explain to me
the tragedy of the murder of Henry Dumas
i hope that that mouth
considers what it supposes
to be so vital
that they must speak of his death
rather than what they think his afterlife is like
