Hedley Poetry from Prison /73
1 The onion is frozen
stubborn and poor.
Frost of your days
and of my nights,
great black cold and
huge round frost.
sung
2 In the cradle of hunger
my child sleeps
He is suckled
on the blood of the onion.
Yet its is your blood [sic]
frosty with sugar
onion and hunger.
sung
3 A dark woman
changed into a moon
drop by drop spills herself
bending over the cradle.
Laugh, my son,
drawing the moon towards you
when it is needful.
sp. Bird in my house
4 laugh out aloud.
