From giant, bulging cylinders the fans
Sprayed out the fog to kill mosquitoes. How
They acted I don’t know. Cancelled their banns?
Abandoned buggy fucking? Stuttered, “Ow!”?
I wonder if the city fathers were
Opposed to free flight sex on buzzing wings.
Were men opposed to points invading fur?
Most wanted holes to take their veiny stings
And white-ish slimy innoculation.
Well, yes, of course they still believed that black
And white shouldn’t mix—miscegenation
Was forbidden, not aphrodisiac.
Strong strictures hobbled the white man breeder.
The county bombed its civil rights leader.
