    Orange You Glad is a journey of peeling back pain, joy, and identity - one poem at a time. For the ones who feel like they were born into the wrong world. For those who laugh, cry, curse, and praise - sometimes all in one breath. These are God-given poems. Not "churchy," just human. Raw. Reflective. Unapologetically Black. And still becoming.

    "Good Enough" is a raw and unapologetic spoken word piece that dives deep into the struggle of identity, self-worth, and survival in a world that still places labels, stereotypes, and barriers on Black lives. Through powerful repetition and unfiltered honesty, the poem captures the weight of depression, the silence of invisibility, and the ever-present question: When will I be seen as enough? This piece weaves together the personal battle of inner darkness with the collective reality of systemic injustice, shining light on the pain of being overlooked, underestimated, and dehumanized. It is both a cry for recognition and a mirror held up to society's ongoing failures. More than just words, "Good Enough" is a testimony-an emotional journey that gives voice to the unheard, honors the resilience of the oppressed, and demands reflection from those who listen.

    my art normally speaks for the more sensual, peaceful,sexy, goofy & bubbly aspect of me . REAL sweet feel good 💩 However there's always multiple surfaces to me , my personality & my work. I can be very angry, hurt & confused at times & It's completely fine because Im human & writing about it makes me feel so much better most times. so please don't get lost if things get dark 😩 there's no light without dark!

    #1 in blackpoets This collection of poems is intended to give some account of the conditions in which African oral poets produce their works, and the audiences to which they address themselves. However, even the most summary account of this topic is a matter of great difficulty. This is partly because of sheer lack of data. Even those who have spent time and care recording African texts have frequently taken next to no interest in the position of the authors or reciters. A related but more profound cause of confusion lies in the popular images which underlie the work of many commentators on African oral literature, images which suggest some general and simple pattern to which these poets are expected to conform. I would be updating poems of various types; Epic poetry, Modern poetry, Poems of gods and ancestors, praise poetry, protest and satirical poems, relationship, survival and most of all, poems about family in our day to day, African lives.
