Why us?

Why as black women do we just have to accept everything 
Can't complain just accept the bare minimum 
Treated like mothers who didn't get a choice
Forced into a life of sacrifice 

Treated like animals but stripped of dignity 
Our lives were never ours just a product of control
Used and abused like some rag doll
Dressed to

Does he like black girls?

Does he like black girls 
Or does he like the idea of the swirl
Does he like black girls
Or does he only like type two and three curls

Does he like black girls
Or does he want bragging rights
Does he like black girls 
Or does he just want a turn 

Does he like black girls
Or does he want

Premium MemberThe Gold Standard

Combine the white picket fence
with thirty one flavors;
Like a tilted paradise 
there’s no cliche standard;

The weird stuff has the clutch gene,
asymmetrical norm;
Bullseye before the buzzer,
always finding a way;

If the colors match or don’t? 
Be ok with distinct;
As long as you’re good? It’s good.
We’re all the gold standard.

Standard



           In the depths of desolation where death 
is presiding in a smug kind of cocoon of parasite,
lies, a heart of calcified care, buried deep inside 
a grim stalactite of unrequited tears.
Apathy's icy grip holds tight holding back 
the meaning of your days and times

Our Standard Flies Above the Crowd

Our standard flies above the crowd,
A call to arms, a rallying cry,
A banner raised to reach the steeple,
A beacon shining in the sky.

With hope and courage in our hearts,
We gather to face the coming fray,
For we are ready to do our part,
And fight for what we believe today.

We lift our voices, strong and clear,
And boldly

Lifting Up a Standard For the People

A banner of hope in a world so feeble,
A symbol of strength in a time of need,
A beacon of light for those who plead.

The world is dark, and the night is long,
The people are weak, and their faith is gone,
But there is a glimmer, a spark of hope,
That can help us all to cope,
Lifting up
