Epitaph for the Man who Died Holding a Hammer

from a poet with a sword name


The hammer poem
by Dennis Espada

He delivers a blow to the gods
of capital and–against all odds–
grinds die-hard icons of greed,
pounds emancipation they forbid.
Hail the man holding the hammer
who lives on like roaring thunder.
