Work #2 :
We are black coffee with curves of sugar.
We are spoons of chocolate 
We are soul food
We are wombed men 
The rib of an african king
The golden crown of the cosmos.
We are full moon or a sunset
We are light, 
We are a spark, 
a flame, 
a bonfire, We are fire works.
We'll leave traces of smoke in your nostrils.,
Just so you'll recognize are presence when you're seeking us.
We shelter ourselves between your veins just to make your heart beat a little faster.
We are the revolution of love. 
We are a silenced desire. We are melanin queens✨.
