In the poem Black People by Amiri Baraka, there is this line:
"words. The magic words are: Up against the wall motherfucker"
I found the poem in the most round about way ever. It is buried on page 9 of the Google search results for ""Black People" poem Baraka", in Google Book results.
Talk about silence.
When I read the line the first time in a post about silence, I misread them with no punctuation.
The magic words are up against the wall motherfucker.
No truer words as to writing, I gotta say.
