Black is my sister,
my friend, my lover,
 my man

Black doesn’t look back,
 bold statement it stands,
 unflinchingly demands

Black is subtle,
it hides when it wants,
it shows when not

Black beckons -
drawing us further
into our dreams

      Black is the background,
      gracing all color it’s moment of fame       

     Black is the text
    of love letters to a flame

Black is innocent,
a nun’s sweet habit-stance

Black seduces -
silk stockings underneath a skirt,
mesh panties falling down to earth
