Mahogany

by Geoffrey Bradley-Bey


The essence of 
my soul.
My silhouette
is a picturesque
of Nubian distinctness.

Mahogany.
This temple
bold and honorable
remains in original
form
mindstate
culture.

Mahogany.
With melanated skin
as protective
as a mother's womb.
The true mother.
Earth.
My beginning.
