Black Goddess
I was the caterpillar that transformed into the cocoon
From the state I became a Black Butterfly
I was the web that spin years and captured flies and insects to eat
I kill at will I am the Black Window
I was the chaff's blowing in the African winds, heat waves shaded by mahogany
deserted safari
I was Black Panther number six witnessing seven die.
I was Cleopatra in love with Anthony
I was Nefferiti with beautiful jewels in my hair
I was Rebecca that won the heart of Issac
I was the Black Night shadowed by the ivory moon
I was a million voices crying for freedom during slavery
I was silence in the alley's when I witnessed my brother's death
I was honor and glory when we marched proudly in the fight fo rcivil rights
I was jazz in blues joints during Harlem Renaissance
I was Hip-Hop spoken in microphones heard through deaf ears
I was the Black goddess in beauty and fair
I was Black Art painting my Black goddess holdIng up a Black Fist
Praising freedom
Black goddess
