Melanin Poppin’

The piece is inspired by my lovely significant other. She is a very proud, yet humble individual. Her will, and strength are that of legend.

————

She is an Ebony Queen,

Her skin cascading a melanin glow, whose radiance could only be matched by the sun.

Her eyes, hazel brown, with a shade of “you cant tear me down”

Her lips, are like two clouds, that taste like what chocolate should

Have been made from.

Her voice Is as soft as shea butter, with a roar only god himself could sit there and say “oh me, that woman is powerful”

Her voice is reminiscent of strength, and sweet honey.

Her body was shaped by Oshun herself, with all kinds of love, affection, and a splash of “get it girl”

Like perfectly preserved african architecture, she is art. Her hips are like the wide handles of fine eqyption pottery, and her legs like a channel to the Nile itself.

Educated and sweet,

She is aspiration at its finest with a doctorate in “I will succeed” her intelligence

Manifested through sheer determination to be who she wants to be.

She is black and proud, Period. With her fist so far in the air, satellites orbit her pride.
