synopsis:
Her skin so dark
as the ground, we walk upon
her hair so wild and strong
almost holding its own personality
Her eyes brown and wide
carrying her own curiosity
her pride pushed down and trampled on,
her smile so bright
hiding away a thousand generations
of pain and tears
and her heart cries a silent song
A song of an ugly black woman...
