The Original Black Queen

by Katisha Burt

It must be the motion of my walk
The way that I talk
The deepness of my thought
That lets you know this
That it's the arrogance of my stride
The ownership of my pride
The way I adapt through time
That lets you know this
That it's the fullness of my lips
The wideness of my hips
The presence of confidence
That lets you know this
That it's the belief in undeterred dreams
The persistence for greater means
The wisdom instilled in me
The Original Black Queen
