Beautiful Black

I love black / I am black / I"m blacker than Rodney King when he got his ass beat 
by the police/ i am blacker than Marcus Garvey when he preached about us 
brothers and sisters going back to Africa/Im blacker than Tommie Smith when he 
held up the black power fist at the Olympics/ Im black x's 2/ blacker than you, you, 
and you/  i am black 200% divided by 2 / I love being black / black is not a state of 
mind / Black is a state of being / I am black because my ancestors were 
kidnapped and sold from their homeland / I am not black because I listen to "hip-
hop". / I am black on both sides no INDIAN in my family / I am black and proud no 
frown on my face/ no trace of hate/ I was made to be black and i cherish it as a 
gift from God

My Sixth Sense

Your beauty is transparent 
Your voice serenades solace 
Your spirit is the wind
Your oxygen keeps me breathing
Your skin is of honey   
Your ruby red lips show off your cool-aid smile 
Your solidity amazes me
Your curvaceous body intrigues my thoughts
Your eyes capture heaven
Your love defies logic
