Blackpoetry Stories

"Step into the vibrant world of 'Melanin Verses: Celebrating Black Womanhood,' a collection of poetic gems penned by a young Gen Z artist. Journey with me, a black girl, from the tapestry of my teenage dreams to the canvas of young adulthood. Explore the rhythm of my life, painted with verses that resonate with the spirit of black resilience, strength, and the beauty of womanhood. Each poem is a melody celebrating the rich hues of melanin and the power of being a black queen."

Is mine to love.... Not yours to hate.... I love my blackness.... I love my hair.... my hue.... my passion.... and so much more.... If you have a problem with my blackness.... that's on you.... not me!

Words spoken from a social slave. I guess I'm part of this. Things our predecessors fought for wasnt supposed to come to this. This poem dwells deeper towards things we seem to brush off and give no attention. (This is my first work! I just revised it.)

its okay to struggle

Love is war, its within me everyday so i write poems about it.

Black folks aren't a monolith. Black is a culture with subcultures. Black is rich, Black is poor... Black is peace, Black is war... Black evolves, Black creates... Black wasn't forced on us, we created Black by combining scraps of traditions lost to us with a twist on the Eurocentric wasteland we were stolen to. If Black ain't powerful? If Black ain't Black?! i got something for all of us. An anthology of thought. no.1 in #blackpoetry [12.08.2020] no.1 in #blacklit [12.10.2020] no.1 in #blackscifi [09.04.2021]
