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
