DARLING SISTER DEAR


Darling Sister Dear!
Why! You Treat Me So!
Why! Deny you me?
Such Pleasure that is Much!

Pleasure of my Childhood Fancy
Pleasure of You!
From My Childhood Memories!
Oh! Darling Sister Dear!

You Descent from
That Great Mother of All
In you is
The Seed of All Mankind!

You are the
 Mother of All!
Beautifully Created!
Perfectly Formed!

Your Ebony Beauty
World Renowned it is
Mark Antony! At the Altar of
Your Beauty Bowed!

Darling Sister Dear!
Why! You Treat Me So!
Why! Deny you me?
Such Pleasure that is Much!

What gods! Has blinded you so!
What Demons! Has Hypnotized!
You So!
Darling Sister Dear!

That you Value Led than Gold!
That you honour Fake than the Original!
That you are!
Uncomfortable in your own Skin!

Darling Sister Dear!
Why crave you! Indian Hair!
Shaved in Temple Rituals!
With Spiritual Implications!

Why waste Family Finance!
On Fake Frivolities!
Envy of the World!
Your Woolen Hair is.

I do remember! In excitement
Your Weaving and Platting
Deep Desires Arouse in Me
Longing for you! In my Heart

Your Styles I do Miss!
Shùkú! Pä'tëwö! All-Back!
Ko'lësë! All-Front! Police-Cap!
 Ghana Style and Bob Marley!

You Angered! When Brothers
Run after Massa’s Gals!
If Look Alike you become!
He will Rather the Real!

Oh! Darling Sister Dear!
 How would Thou Feel!
If Brothers go round in!
Bald-Head Wig of the Clowns!
