We Are Black, We Are Beautiful, We Are Women

We are black, we are beautiful, we are women
We are black, we are feminine, we are maternal
We are black, we are strong, we are brave
We are black, we are curvy, we are seductive
We are black, we are prideful, we are sassy
We are black, we are Afrocentric, we are political
We are black, we are lovely, we are elegant
We are black, we are "cool", we are stylish, we are creative
We are black, we are beautiful, we are women
AND YET, we are overlooked, unacknowledged, and ignored
