Black-eyed Peas
Supposed to be good luck—
Supposes I think I had some
Or that I live in hope I shall
Someday believe
A portion shall be mine.
What I know is good
Luck is supposed to be
In such beans.
What I truly know is ill
Comes regardless
Of good luck.
It’s not about the beans—
It’s not about luck or something else—
So eat your black-eyed peas
And live on good man—
Life is yours.
- Poet Christopher Davenport lives and writes in New York City.
