Black woman, the crown is in in your name
do not sleep on the centuries of wisdom and strength dormant in your bones
our warrior’s spirit passed down
along with battle ploys inherited from the sages before us
Black woman, the only error is the system
your existence is resistance
your anger flows with truths that are yet to be discovered
they say we are disrupting the peace, but when were we ever allowed to rest?
Black woman,
I am an orbit in and of myself
Black
Woman

time and tide wait for no man
and neither do I
how can we give life, but not deserve our own?
