If I Were
If I were a kente kite
I’d hang u by your toes
And we’d delight in flight
Of poetic purple prose
We would drop lines
So electric and so divine
Emerald eclectic electric shine
Lighting up the darkest minds
If I were a holy book
I’d say all the right words
Anyone who takes a look
Would feel seen and heard
No need for virgin vanity
We all make a pile of dust
Sealed by indigo insanity
Revealed by true blue trust
If I were a catchy turquoise tune
I’d be your favorite song
And like fragrant flower you bloom
As the world sniffs and sings along
But only am I a country girl
With tears, fears, smiles and denials
Yet my pen has but to twirl
To rock the planet a while
