Haitian Food

I’ll be your Haitian pride,
Your plantain princess,
Your golden goddess,
Your afro-ed queen,
Your point of joy and pride,
Your want your belief, your belief, your everything

I’ll be your rock,
Your eternal Earth,
Your wonderful wife,
Your tchaka keeping you warm,
Your Atlas with your weight
On
My
Shoulders…

I’ll be your Haitian food,
I’ll keep you comfortable
I’ll keep…you.
