Today again

Today again,

I woke up to another naked girl

on Instagram.

She’s black,

they’re almost always black.

They tell you they’re strong and free.

Learning to accept their imperfections

and becoming comfortable in their body.

Exploring the wonder of melanin

and the magic of roots.

Dear black girl,

Black beautiful girl,

When will you stop disseminating your skin

like wrong information to itchy eyes

waiting to devour you from headline to recap?

A man’s body is his weakness,

how weak you have become.

Beyond this you hold no mystery

don’t sell away your magic

For you are the world’s popular demand.
