Children and saints introduce a figure associated with Middle Eastern men, racial fears, drugs, and an invitation to do one's best. He faces town-square burning and jail while a thousand crews want his quickness; the ending turns to dancing, motor, and sail.
The crews' desire for the figure's quickness contrasts with his jail and drunkeness. The arrow places anchovie shopping within the jail line, adding a mundane activity to that portrait without explaining its relation to the punishment. The final two rows put dancing beside the breeze before saying that no motor or main sail keeps us down turned.

Section 'VI' pictures a figure in 'the boldness / of Middle Eastern men,' 'thinning the white man's fear to stay, / or the black man's fear to go,' with 'Drugs being the closest thing to Earth' and a message of 'go ahead and do your best.' A second stanza puts him 'Wild on the sea and burned in town squares,' 'Jailed from boats for his anchovie shopping drunkeness,' though 'a thousand crews' yearn for his quickness, ending with 'No motor or main sail keeps us down turned.'
The page reads as a revised draft, with handwritten 'Jailed,' 'is,' and the inserted 'anchovie shopping' visibly reshaping a portrait that mixes saintly and criminal traits. Its long, double-spaced lines move from social fear to sea labor and end on a defiant collective 'us.' The tone is part legend, part rap sheet.
