woody guthrie was dangerous
woody guthrie was an outlaw

a word that no weapon can defeat
that hard word
liberty

garcia lorca was dangerous
garcia lorca was an outlaw
they dragged him out of his house
put him up against a wall
and shot him
not because he was a politician
not because he was a criminal
but because he was a poet

but they cannot kill the word
they can kill the poet
but they cannot kill the spirit
they can kill the poet
but they cannot kill the people
