Banana Skirt

Young with fruitful purpose

Blossoming into words-

“I am Woman”

Grown from the seeds of home

Born fruitfully endowed into trial

With berries of milk

Leaves of pink

Curves of bursting corn

“I, a black Woman”

My skin, a peeling

Covering the buds

Blossoming into overt

Speech against the weeds

Who pretend to be flowers

Occluding to capitalize on Sun

Too young

To understand there is enough

For me, too.
