The Joy Of Black Hair Poem by sydney conteh
The Joy Of Black Hair
It is said
The bigger the hair the closer to heaven you are
The longer the hair
The closer to your roots
That is why black people
Have skyscraper afros
To show the god and goddess
That resides in black skin
That is why we wear dreads
That touch the ground
Connecting us to our ancestors
Black people have the power to
Deify ourselves, whilst keeping ourselves
Grounded, to our ancestors
