I’m supposed to be full of anger.

to roll my eyes and neck, suck my teeth and stare down any woman, who’s not a sista, with a brotha

to have 1, maybe 2 children at my age

have an attitude that stinks miles away

have hair bone straight and weaved down my back

to be able to dance.  this skill should be inate

love the shit out of some r&b and hip hop

to talk with a certain twang

Lauryn said, ‘I’ll get out’

And I do.  We do. 

Some are certain they have black defined

Enlighten me, unless it sounds like the first few lines of this 

I’ve. heard. that. before.
