Tip JarText within this block will maintain its original spacing when publishedDroning a drowsy syncopated tune,Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon, I heard a Negro play.

With his ebony hands on each ivory keyHe made that poor piano moan with melody.

I, too, sing America. I am the darker brother. They send me to eat in the kitchenWhen company comes,But I laugh,And eat well,And grow strong. Tomorrow,I’ll be at the tableWhen company comes. Nobody’ll dareSay to me,“Eat in the kitchen,”Then. Besides,They’ll see how beautiful I amAnd be ashamed—I, too, am America. By Langston Hughes
