Sistah 2 Sistah--my poetry

This powerful piece I wrote for an African American Women's Literature Class and in some ways was my respone to reading "For Colored GirlsWho Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf" by Ntozake Shange.  I hope I captured the spirit of her work, as that was my goal and while I am not Afircan American or a woman I felt this topic needed addressed in a powerful poetry piece.  With all of that said I hope you enjoy.


"Sistah 2 Sistah"

crazy ass bitch ya must
b outcha mothafuckin’ mind
where my god damn shoes at
ya juz his damn wife
wit ur mocha colored thighs
& coffee colored eyes

cain’t do dis 2 often sistah
cuz he didn’t use a condom
may b a kiss 4 u his baby mama
i don’t need anotha mouf 2 feed

but dat nigga georgio don’t stop talkin’

pickin’ up mens who never set dey foot in no ghetto befo’
he don’t need no damn atm
when dere michaels, trevors and stephens

he done done it million times ‘fore girl i knows
fo’ real girl my word is bond

let him speak dat voice 2 me
swearin’ he ain’t no faggot

but dat ain’t no bitch dats a man
