Black Mysticism

My black is immortal-

It’s spiritual.

My melanin mysticism will gather all;

And when it leads unbelievers to evangelistic wars,

I never conquer the crusade alone.

I'm the shade of royalty;

The color purple is in my nativity.

I don’t know anything besides being black,

and radical, and loud and, culture

and cliché and defiant -

Defiant of odds, stereotypes and systems.

Then, sit in the council of my melanin wisdom

breathe in the content of my works.
