Fot Assata New Brunswick Prison, 1977 In this new picture your smile has been to war you are almost obscured by other faces on the pages those shadows are sisters who have not yet spoken your face is in shadow obscured by the half-dark by the thick bars running across your eyes like sentinels all the baby fat has been burned away like a luxury your body let go reluctantly the corners of your mouth turn dowrln I cannot look into your eyes who are all those others behind you the shadows are growing lighter and more confusing I dream of your freedom as my victory and the victory of all dark women who forego the vanities of silence who war and weep sometimes against our selves in each other rather than our enemies falsehoods Assata my sister warrior Joan of Arc and Yaa Asantewa embrace at the back of your cell.
