Notes About The Poem

Who is this care giver?

Who is this nuturer and comforter?

Image result for pictures of aunt jemima

                                                   Whose the one.............(not her)

                                             I AM GOD

Ain'T Ya Mama

AIN'T YA MAMA

I MAY NURTURE YOU NOW AND THEN
WE MAY OR MAY NOT BE NEXT OF KIN
BUT I FIND IT SO MAZING
I AIN'T YA MAMA
NOT YOUR MAMAM
nO, AUNT JEMIMA
NOT TRYING TO BE DONMINATION
COARSE AND DIRECTIVE, COVERT DRECTIONS
DOESN'T MEAN IT'S MY INTENTIION
I AIN'T YA MAMA
nOT YOUR MAMA
nO AUNT JEMIMA
I MAY TIE YOUR SHOES AND OMB YOUR HAIR
COOK YOU BREAKFAST,  LUNCH AND DINNER
I AIN'T YA MAMA
NOT YOUR MAMA
NOT TRYING TO BE DONMINATION
COARSE AND DIRECTIVE, COVERT DIRECTIONS
I AM NOT YOUR MAMA
BUT I FIND IT SO MAZING
I MAY NURTURE YOU THEN AND NOW
AS A CHILD HOLD YOUR HAND
PROTECT YOU FROM THE ELEMENTS AND MAN
EVIL TREATS, SPIRITS THIS WORLD LIFE'S SPAN
IN YOUR HEART ON YOUR MIND, CARE FOR YOU LIKE A MOTHER
BUT ALAS IT I'M NOT YOUR MAMA I AM WHO...
WHO AM I? I AIN'T YA MAMA
NOT YOUR MAMA
NO AUNT JEMIMA
WHO AM I 
 I AM GOD
