Honoring well-known poet Naomi Johnson
(Poem: My Black Is Beautiful- Men Version)
My Black Is Beautiful and it come in
all shades even with a low cut fade
from dreads, waves and bald heads
that have been shaved.
The bold hue of my skin tone
displays the warrior's trait in my
cheekbones.
For I'm a man that has built-in
courage an inner pride,
I will not ever deny.
My body structure is cut fine
even if I'm five feet or nine.
I walk with confidence, which some
don't understand
but you must know that's the uniqueness
of a black man.
Look at me can you see the victory in my eyes
and the potency of a Mandingo soldier
in my thighs.
I stride to the beat of the African drum,
so people know where my warrior strength
comes from.
What you see is not a deception
or a misconception.
It's a superb contribution of natural beauty
from my creator, don't ignore.
My blackness is to be adored.
Because black is the color of nobility
and authority.
It represents loyalty and style,
a blessing by my ancestors from the Nile?
My personality is stunning from the inside and out.
the words of this verse are true, I have no doubt.
Black has been beautiful from the beginning of time
and no one can change my mind.
It's a color of power that shines boldly like the North
star, which has a mighty impact wherever you are.
Black is beautiful and has it own groove
with a stability that cannot be moved.
I hope it's clearly understood-
My Black is Beautiful and extraordinarily good.
