My hair is my strength
my power and might
seek not to kid
what you know not
but understand the blessing
of my loc

My beauty is profound
my dark skin addresses
the lack
of awareness
of my Godly stance
seek not to kid
what you know not
Understand the blessing
of my loc

I AM a Goddess
Divinely created
Beauty of the Soul
Melanin and nappy hair
blessings from above
seek not to kid
what you not
Understand the blessing
of my loc

Ignorance abounds
as you laugh secretly
Your mockery
confirms
That I AM
has made me perfect
so as you continue to seek to kid
My locs continue to grow
and manifest the power
of the Divine
Understand I AM
The blessing....and I'm not just my locs.

My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ

If I was your girlfriend

Yeah, another Prince discussion. This man has saved my soul through the years. A follow Prince fan always refers to Prince as the ultimate "pimp". He speaks of how smooooooth Prince is lyrically. I came across the video for "If I Was Your Girlfriend," taken from the Sign of the times film. I started gigglin'. Prince IS a pimp. So clever. Witty. Smooth. Just runnin' game but damn, I'd fall for it. The title alone would get me..... IF I WAS UR GIRLFRIEND - PRINCE
