Black Hair 4 Days Poem by Oni Lasana

Black Hair 4 Days



Sistahs be...Sensitive By Nature
Wet & Wild, Soft & Free
Hairstylin' you and stylin' hair me
Our Wild Roots...Do Grow
Into Africa's Best...African Pride
African Gold
Behold!
Come Back Hair to Breakthru
West Set to No Frizz
I'm not foolin' you
With pony tail attachments
Clip on's & multi colored braids
Don't you see Motions in me?
Dark & Lovely...we gotta be TCB!
Ohhhh
Feel Beautiful...Organic Roots
Textures & Tones of Flaming Desire
Hot comb burning into Hawawiian Silk
Bald & Bold...from a permanent hit
It's a knot....its a snag!
Tie down....my Royal Crown
with a Black Gold....Do Rag
Back To Nature....I must be
Let's Dread...Lock Up...Better Locks
for you & me
Cuz
Black is Beautiful...yet it is
Black & Beautfiful...Alternatives
Natty Hairfood...Ultra Sheen
Girlfriends be stylin...ya know what I mean?
Black & Sassy...Weaves & Waves
Let's Jam...Put It Up!
Afro pickin'....Bounce & Swing
BLACK HAIR
4 days
