a nursery rhyme for the black child


frogs & snails and puppydog's tails
that's not what little black boys are made of
they are the seed born from black fruit that made love
I could never dis.re:spect
where black boys came from

sugar & spice and everything thats nice
is that what little black girls are made of?
was it the sky or the sea, that you came from?
and does the I contain WE in thy Kingdom...
