THE COLOR OF LIFE

(for the nite nia wore red to vera’s wedding, 

not just a plain red, but a really, really black kind of red)

 

red 

 

worn

by a black woman

high stepping

 

is a negroidal color 

that will stop 

yr heart

beat

 

ing / make you

pause, fall

to yr knees

 

& thank every god

there be

 

for being alive

& able to see

 

the color red

worn by a black woman
