Did Ya Hear me?
I'm making a black woman cake cause I'm hungry as hell.
And the sweet tooth I have, only a sista can break the spell.
Let me reach into my spice rack to see what I can get.
To make a mix that will stick to my stomach you can bet.
2 cups of intelligence,
1 cup of sugar brown.
Cause she's got to be sweet,
mental, deep and sound.
Cinnamon is always good
to accent the taste.
A few cups of culture
so she's down for her race.
You see I won't bite into anything
That's not conscious of its own.
That's why I stick to chocolate.
And leave angel food alone.
I am adding butter
cause she must be smooth.
2 raisins for the dimples
will also be cool.
I must add eggs
so she can reproduce.
Can't leave her hanging
cause I like children too!!
I think I'll add a little salt
to balance her out.
And a dominant profile
to show she has clout.
For a responsible woman
I'll throw in some yeast
So she'll swell with juices
when I'm ready to feast.
I'll add 7 cups of courage
and into the oven to bake.
Turn it to 360 degrees
To balance out her mental state.
Now that it's done brothas
I won't share her wealth
But I'm sharing the recipe
As I'm consuming this black woman
all by myself.
Good Black Women are indeed all around us. We pass them on the streets, in the malls, in captivity behind the walls, And in the hall at work. Most we can't see because we don't knowwhat a good woman really looks like. She usually isn't flashy enough or rich enough to turn our heads. She might not wear a fur coat or push a Lex. She might not have a "body by Fisher" or a face for "Ebony." But, as you mature, you realize it's better to find someone who's got your back than someone who turns your head.
A Good Black Women doesn't agree whole heartily with everything you say. She doesn't just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite. She doesn't have to declare how sensitive, sweet, caring, sincere, yada, yada, yada, she is (she won't have to...because it shows). She has her own opinions and you may clash, but she doesn't have to degrade you to prove she's right. She even admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same.
A Good Black Women is not going to meet every item on your checklist. She is human with frailties & faults mixed in with all of her wonderful, sensual attributes. She needs your love & respect, she needs to feel that you don't have to catch her doing something wrong so you can declare, "Aha! I knew you were a dog!!!"
A Good Black Women doesn't necessarily give you a huge Birthday or Valentine gift. She shows her love in the ways that are comfortable to her. Don't judge her by TV standards. No one is living that Fairy tale -- for real.
BLACK WOMEN, we salute you, and thank you for who you are, and all you've done.
