Minstrel Man by: Langstan Hughes

Because my mouth
Is wide with laughter
And my throat
Is deep with song,
You do not think
I suffer after
I have held my pain
So long?

Because my mouth
Is wide with laughter,
You do not hear
My inner cry?
Because my feet
Are gay with dancing,
You do not know
I die?

P.S. I chose to post this one because it kinda goes perfectly after the last one that I posted. Oh, and don't make any conection to the fact that this writer is already dead and the irony that you probably see. lol... I mean....that's rude! (lol XD)
