Charles Mingus (Apr 22, 1922 in Nogales, AZ -
Jan 5, 1979 in Cuernavaca, Mexico)
"This mule ain't from Moscow, this mule ain't from the South,
But this mule's got some learning - mostly mouth to mouth.
This mule could be called stubborn and lazy,
But in a clever sort of way, this mule's been
waiting and planning,
And working - in seclusion - for a sacred kind of day.
The day that burning sticks - or crosses - is not mere child's play.
But a madman in his most incandescent bloom whose loveless soul,
Is imperfection in it's most lustruous bloom.
Stand fast, old mule, soothe in contemplation,
Thy burning hole and aching thigh.
That your stubbornness is of the living,
And cruel anxiety is about to die.
Stand fast young old mule. Stand fast.
Freedom for your mama, freedom for your dady
freedom for ypur brothers and sisters
But no freedom for me."
