An African Woman


Image Source

She is the epitome of beauty,
Black beauty.

You are beautiful for a black girl,
as if beauty is subjected to your melanin.
She is desired by many,
cos of her edges and not her brains.
But her brains can hoard everything in the universe.
She is suppressed so much so that,
she ends in the kitchen.
She's told that she can't do anything meaningful in the mens' world.
She's made to stay at home 24/7 doing nothing but tending to a man house.
She doesn't get to create the home she wants but what the man wants.
How can she get out of this belittle ways.
Its up to us to change it.
The black woman is fearful and wonderful.
She's amazing and smart.
She's industrious and strong
She's the producer of fine substance and what every child seeks.

She's what every man want to rest his tired head on her bossom.
The African woman can rise because she's not meant to stay on the ground.
And when she rises she'll do incredible things

Black is a label used by those of European descent and ignorant melanated peoples to make us other than our true selves...
We are not black, we are not a color, nor ends of a color spectrum.
We have our differences and just because my copper skin is similar to a so-called black man we are not the same. We are not doing ourselves any good referring to ourselves as the end of a color spectrum originally labeled unto us by colonists!

My entry thanks @lovejuice for this support aimed at elevating newbiews.
Here is my entry:
PEACE, ABUNDANCE AND JOY
Peace can be seen as one of the psychological state of mind of a living being be it humans, animals or even plants. It's the calmness, gentlessness and fearlessness which helps one to live a trouble-free life. It can as well be attributed and categorized into:

  1. Individual/personal peace
  2. Generalized peace
    individual peace is the kind in which one's affair isn't intruded neither compromised. It allows one to enjoy both family and confidential privacy.
    Generalized peace is that peace attributed to group of people, either an organisation, peer group/friends, working professions or group of companies. It ensures the smooth running of the various sectors of an economy.

ABUNDANCE:
As the name implies means having something in its amplous extent. The degree of mass in which a quantity is speculated is equally a way of ascertaining it's abundance. When one has mundane affluence to its extravagant appearance, it simply alludes the acquisition of such to its fullness.
Wealthy people amass riches for themselves and do not run short of any material need, they're said to be living in abundance.
For instance: in France, those who are not living in Abundance are not of importance and so are not given the chance to exercise their franchise. Lolz

JOY:
Joy is also one of the states of mind which is mainly characterized by blisfullnes. It's could be synonymically proved to be similar to happiness or delight, however, linguists have agreed that no two words are exactly alike.
With Joy, intimate relationship can be fostered and mutually instigated and propagated. The intense happiness felt by fellows is as a result of interior and captivated joy.
Thanks
