We are the very
Liquid sensuality
That oozes ad seduces
Society to our sacred dynasty
We rise as the dust
From the stomped african slaves
We were their chains
As rubies that rest
Upon our breasts
We are strong african women
With skin glazened in ebony
We partake in monologues
Articulating our pain
I soliloqies sharper
Than the rough diamonds of
Sierra Leone
Our smiles make the rain shy away
The clouds blush pink as the
Skies of sierra Leonne
We inherit the beauty of our mother
The strength of the resilient black woman
We are a secret sorority of royalty in our blood
We are mother Nature's heartbeat
Beating tattoos of presence and possibilities through our feet
Nubiens we rise
Our blackness never disguised
And the treasured pearl between our thighs
Is a gem
Forever prized
Stand up black woman
You have arrived
