Mahogany L. Browne has a new poem/book out entitled "Black Girl Magic," challenging societal conditioning and celebrating black girls. The book invites readers to find their own magic. [You can purchase her book on amazon here.] Her work is powerful and wonderful.
Ego-Tripp(ed)
by Mahogany L. Browne
& then the poet became G D/like
just’a rolling his tongue everywhere
like G O D must’ve
when the earth got birth(ed) & even
after the fertile soil turned
over on herself/ & the sky--a mix
between “blue&what you looking @?”
(that was sometime afta the 5th day)
when the crumbling grit shook her grin
loose crossed each arm & said
“Man? Nah…we good”
Read, listen, share, create, and be on watch.
