A. M. Langston

If you could choose what your dreams would be about tonight, what would you choose? Would you be in the kitchen, holding a knife to the neck of an intruder? In the desert, lying under a flaming, wrecked car with the person you love? Reading "In Your Gourd, Off the Dime" can be letting A. M. Langston choose your dreams for you. Read a page right before bed, or read a few. Let the spirit of each poem cut open your window screen, and carry you to a dimension you've never visited before.
