Do my poems have special meaning

to people with skin like mine

do the lines

call to black blood

do the stanzas call themselves nigerian

does the punctuation long for Africa

when caucasion men read my poems

do they wonder why their

skin prickles

are the words more apt

to line the dreams of young african women

laying in bed

happy to have found

their ancestral home

within the pages of

of my metaphysic constructions
