THE ANTEBELLUM SOUTH




THE ANTEBELLUM SOUTH

Lie down and speak no more,
let senility forget your mouth,
die now and let us forgive,
the sins of the antebellum south,

time has rusted through your soul,
vermin violate your graves,
underneath the slave-tilled soil,
your rebels flag no longer waves,

let the dust choke your breath,
silencing you to every man,
the antebellum south is dead,
it shall never rise again…
