Phrenology by Amiri Baraka
Phrenology
A phrenologist told me
New York City, The Apple
S'gottta killer bump
on its head,
its pale and bloody
poisons with lead!
So he gave me a formula
To get rid of this bump
He sd this is the only thing
Save you from dying like
A chump.
A MODEST PROPOSAL FOR GIULIANI'S DISPOSAL
IN FORTY ONE VERSES WHICH ARE ALSO CURSES
(Could be solo, or duo, or group, different accents
& occasionally in Spanish, Creole, Yiddish, Caribbean , e.g., Jamaican accents,
at the same time, or serially)
Gather all the people Giuliani has hurt
They should slap him forty one times
with forty one sticks , forty one bats,
on his bald head or across his hat.
Let 41 wolves attack him and a poison snake wrap him
forty one coils around his neck
Then let these animals bite and infect him
until he shows humans he
respects them
But don't nobody kill him
Keep him alive, every morning at 4am
Wake him up and start again.
Forty one blood tests
Forty one needles
Forty one pills
Forty one enemas
Forty one baths
Forty one questions
On forty one pads
Asked by 41 psychopaths.
Then each of the forty one, set fire to his hair.
Let it burn until its put out
By some one who cares
Workers of all nationalities,
should drag him from the Gracie Mansion to Diallo's home. Drag by his feet with his head on the street
like the people did IL Duce in Rome
Keep him naked until he confesses
Give everything he got to the needy
Even his dresses
Choke him, nearly smoke him
But please don't kill him, keep him alive
Sick people commit suicide to escape the pain
But Giuliani got to experience the whole agonia
Again and again
Summon All the Aids patient's and
When he's on his knees
gather round Giuliani and give him the disease.
Let the unemployed kick him
With all deliberate speed
And the squeegee brothers
Squeegee him till he bleed
Tie his Dishonor to a tree in front of city hall
So every one of his victims families and friends
Can make Forty one ass-whipping calls
Giuliani needs to be peed on every forty one seconds
By forty one of his victims friends and Giuliani own depraved men
Tie him to killer cops and set them all on fire
But don't let him die, just let him cry.
Giuliani must be punctured
With 41 shots
The 19 that hit Diallo
And the 22
That did not
Get forty one loud speakers and have them repeat
"Even most white people hate you",
for every forty one pieces Of the bastard to reach the street.
Commit his ass
To an asylum for the criminally insane
Surround him with maniacs
And make him explain
Lock him in the hyena cage
At Bronx zoo
Cover him with zoo dirt
And elephant doo doo
Let him sleep outside
Like the homeless he abused
On something nasty and wet
With no coat and no shoes
He should be sentenced
For murder one two three and four
Manslaughter, assault, extortion
Kidnapping,
Hit and run, conspiracy, fleeing the scene
Forgery, B&E
Impersonating a Human Being,
Vice, corruption , fraud and prostitution
Aggravated lewdness, violation of civil rights
And grand larceny, confidence
And protection rackets, Rico statute
On his jacket, serial bias crimes, misuse of the mails,
Malfeasance, misfeasance, nonfeasance and
Criminal ugliness, sexual perversion, jaywalking
And lying while talking.
