POETRY- The One
The One
Fed up with superficial sensations
I'm waiting for the next elevation of intellectual conversation
I'm waiting for the man whose understanding
Is just as commanding as his African features
I'm waiting for a teacher of men
Whose roster of women include
his mama, his sister, his cousin
and maybe one or two friends
He doesn't need 9 or 10 women to define him
Just one
I'm waiting for the man one that feeds my seed with "the Son"
and Man, when he finds me
I'm done
Fed up with superficial sensations
I'm waiting for the next elevation of intellectual conversation
I'm waiting for the man whose understanding
Is just as commanding as his African features
I'm waiting for a teacher of men
Whose roster of women include
his mama, his sister, his cousin
and maybe one or two friends
He doesn't need 9 or 10 women to define him
Just one
I'm waiting for the man one that feeds my seed with "the Son"
and Man, when he finds me
I'm done
