Lmao!  But that was a masterpiece from ajanaku the great - I thoroughly enjoyed the poem. Once you look beyond what you might term"offensive", you'll get a clearer picture of what he was painting. The picture he painted makes Mona Lisa look like fake art. I'm going to be conventional/respectful with mine.  Thanks, bro! No mind Her Highness ... Na joke na. |

Her Highness I'm about to pen something for black women. I need inspiration. Let it come from your heart. What do you see when you look at a black woman. What do you want or desire from a black woman? What do you want to be to a black woman? Think of our history, heritage, weakness, strength, struggle, success, journey, etc. Think of our diversity. Our struggle for collectivism in a society of individualism (or vice versa). And use that fashion trend as inspiration. |

Interesting scope - but that's a lot to cover and it might lead to unnecessary verbiage since I'm still an amateur. I'm riding with the physical qualities at the moment, but I might chip in two or three from what you suggested. Thanks, anyway. |

Black Woman
The mother of humanity
Through you, all races of people were birthed
Spent nine months in your womb
Sucked the fresh milk from your boobs
You watched them crawl, walk, and run
Watched them grow into their own
To occupy the four corners of the globe
Black woman - my nan, my aunt, my mother
My friend, my niece, my cousin, my sister
My future wife and unborn daughter
The wonderfully crafted and ageless smooth skin
That doesn't crack and forever stays sanguine
The skin that comes in different shades
Light-skinned, dark-skinned, caramel
Chocolate and brown-skinned
Glowing in fluorescence
With the melanin acting as a catalyst
Black woman, the amazingly round batty
Full hips that exude your feminine side
Thick thighs that drive the wheels of steel
Make them turn gorgeously like the turntables
Jiggling, and twerking; an amazing sight to behold
Luscious lips, the purveyor of the kiss of fire
Full and strong nappy Hair;
The protector of the head from the sun
Big sparkling eyes like diamond
Black woman, they say you can be opinionated and rebellious
Labelled you angry and discourteous
But I see strength and will power
You're a strong, bold, and beautiful
Hermetic as clay, and indestructible
Tall and thick as a baobab
The essence of the survival of black man
And driving force behind his achievements against all odds

Love the poem. Thank you Shymmex.
I esp love the last verse and the last two lines.
But we don't have nappy hair. We have beautiful rebellious hair, as rebellious as ourselves.
