From Hunter's Field

With over 200 others

Carrying a red umbrella

I walk in the drizzly rain



Listening to great jazz

And marching with a twist

It's so much more

Than to just entertain



I'm proud to support

The Dumaine Street Gang

NOLA sure has the best jazz rockers

Teaching the public once again



It's not what you think

"They" are not to blame

Debunking stereotypical myths

Educating others, can really be a pain



Singing out on North Claiborne

Our rally ended at Congo Square

I'm still holding high a red umbrella

So research can make some gains



So tired I feel from the long march

I collapse onto the sidewalk

Still holding my red umbrella

I have HIV, my name is Jane.
