Kinky hair narration

by Kaicreatess

October 31, 2020

The sun loves me so,

Informin me, glowin me

Strengthen me, speakin frequency

To me, for I’m a crown...

*****

Perm?

What’s that?

Why?

What about the sun?

Why I gotta be straight?

Why I gotta be “white”?

****

Why I gotta make friends

With the weave?

Why I gotta become sisters

With wig?

Don’t wanna be an European hair...

It’s like fur...

****

They make laws

For not havin me around...

They signed petitions

And now

It feels like I’ve become a

Low self esteem...

****

Though there were promotion

About nature hair...everywhere

Which is good..

But don’t forget about me

Your crown you’re born with...

I’m way superior

Than a perm

A Weave

A wig....

And I’m tryin to catch

The sunbeam

But you’re too busy listenin to

That shittin beauty standard to tell

You how you look..

I’m the good hair

The kinky hair

The one you cornrow

The one you twist,

The one you lock

Thick soft and I shine like

That beautiful sun...

So girl, young woman

Don’t be ashamed of yourself

Of your own curly puffs...

You’re gorgeous...

Don’t let anybody especially the pop

Culture tell you any different...

Besides I’m too healthy for you...

So take care of me.....
