Amina Baraka
My revolutionary comrade
AB my comrade too
We brothers and sisters really
Beyond friends
United in revolutionary blood and joy
So many good times together
Coast to coast
Black house SF
Spirit house NewArk
Baraka house 10th Street
My east coast home
So many years tears fears
See Baraka children grow
Ras become da mayor
Middy Jr Chief of staff
Shani gone to lesbian heaven
Shani say Marvin X only man I like
AB smiling from Communist heaven
Dancing with Maya Toni
Sun Ra Coltrane
WEB
Robeson
Malcolm
808 10th Street quiet now
AB gone
Amina writes poetry alone
Free of AB's shadow
Wait till you hear her poems
Fire poems of love
There was Mandela
And there was Winnie
Don't mess with Amina
Like Winnie
Revolutionary terror
No first lady of Newark
Ras her son not husband
Rarely go to City Hall
Let them boys do they thing
Amina Baraka gotta sing
Red songs of revolution
Just don't mess with her children
Won't be no problem.
