UN - GUARDED SMILE - a poem to Sam Randolph by Julia Wright
(Daughter of Literary Icon Richard Wright)
brother Sam
when I first met you
on another zoom
I did not know your name
and all I saw
was what I thought
at the time
was such a beaming
unguarded smile
that I failed to notice
the bed from
which you spoke
up for others
little did I know
that you literally
had won your smile
against the guards
who made sure you
were shackled
before severing your spine
while failing to break your spirit
the upright courage it took
to withstand torture
by the guards and the DA
shows who the spineless ones really are
your humble relentless determination
not to be broken not only exonerated you
it turned you into our honored teacher
