Homage to my Hips
these hips are big hips. they need space to move around in. they don't fit into little petty places. these hips are free hips. they don't like to be held back. these hips have never been enslaved, they go where they want to go they do what they want to do. these hips are mighty hips. these hips are magic hips. i have known them to put a spell on a man and spin him like a top Lucille Clifton
Homage to My Hair when I feel her jump up and dance i hear the music! my God im talking about my nappy hair! she is a challenge to your hand black man, she is as tasty on your tongue as good greens black man, she can touch your mind with her electric fingers and the grayer she do get, good God, the blacker she do be!
