Poem #8

I kiss thee upon your royal crown
Bald, tapered, wavy, curly, dreaded or faded
Marvelous and majestic, all heads bow down

Afro, kinky, flowing, untamed or braided
It is so royally you and I love every bit of it
Bald, tapered, wavy, curly, dreaded or faded

Your majesty, his highness, lord, god, all a perfect fit
Soft, smooth, rough, luxurious textures to the touch
It is so royally you and I love every bit of it

No matter how you wear it, spiked, slicked back or such
I am loyal to the crown twisted, combed or shaved
Soft, smooth, rough, luxurious textures to the touch

Be bold your Excellency and never let your locs be enslaved
Free you mane, natural and envied , with strong roots like a tree
I am loyal to the crown twisted, combed or shaved

Your symbol of sovereignty, revel in what God bestowed upon thee
This glistening crown adorned with jewels, a glorious earth tone
Free you mane, natural and envied , with strong roots like a tree
Beautiful and masculine, regal and divine, a gift to you alone
