Drug Baby Mulatto

Drug baby mulatto,
sin child of a loveless world --
they exult you,
to hide themselves.

Drug baby mulatto,
love child of a sinful world --
be their symbol of change.

A change of such hope,
that will vindicate the world --
you can unite,
drug baby mulatto.

Conceived by criminal license --
the drug baby mulatto,
rids the world
of liberty by law.

Knowing law was oppressive.

Knowing law will set you free.

Drug baby mulatto,
sin child of a loveless world --
they exult you,
to hide themselves.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
