What reading level is Once book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What would Hitler say?
I am brown-er Than a jew Being one step Beyond that Colored scene.
You are the Golden Boy, Shiny but bloody And with that ancient martial tune Only your heart is out of step— You love.
But even knowing love I shrink from you. Blond And Black; it is too charged a combination.
Charged with past and present wars, Charged with frenzy and with blood Dare I kiss your German mouth?
Touch the perfect muscles Underneath the yellow shirt Blending coolly With your yellow Hair?
I shud...der at the whiteness Of your hands.
Blue is too cold a color For eyes.
But white, I think, is the color Of honest flowers, And blue is the color Of the sky.
Come closer then and hold out to me Your white and faintly bloodied hands.
I will kiss your German mouth And will touch the helpless White skin, gone red, Beneath the yellow shirt.
I will rock the yellow head against My breast, brown and yielding.
But I tell you, love, There is still much to fear.
We have only seen the First of wars First of frenzies First of blood.
