EBONY REMINISCENCE

 

Black as the night

My sable soul sings

Songs praising Nubian

Ancestors dancing

To treed thoughts

Rooted in the womb 

Of my pregnant 

Poetic mind…

 

Such is the essence

Of poetic labors of love

And the orgasmic Nile flow

Of impregnating

Words of wisdom

Watering inspiration

And thigh-warming

Navel awareness

Rebirthing chosen

Mission purpose…

 

Indeed my beloved

Ancestors:

To not know where

We go from here

Is bad

And not to engage

In working out 

Where

And how

Is worst…

 
Black as the night
My sable soul sings
Songs praising Nubian
Ancestors dancing
To treed thoughts
Rooted in the womb 
Of my pregnant 
Poetic mind…

Such is the essence
Of poetic labors of love
And the orgasmic Nile flow
Of impregnating
Words of wisdom
Watering inspiration
And thigh-warming
Navel awareness
Rebirthing chosen
Mission purpose…

Indeed my beloved
Ancestors:
To not know where
We go from here
Is bad
And not to engage
In working out 
Where
And how
Is worst…
