Black Poetry : African Woman Dancer (for Afri)

[blakverb]

Dance under the moonlight
to the sound of the jimbe'
sway to carribean steel drums
and place visions of you
tracing your outline upon my
state of mental with your
spiritual instrumental
dance with the grace of
gazelles playing on the serengeti
until the equator hides the sun

the voices of Songhai
are singing your name into tomorrow
and placing diamonds at your feet

dance queen dance!!!
dance queen dance!!!

let no one steal the rhythm God
gave you....

dance us into a new day
african children need your inspiration
your expresso motion outlines
the sky for the sun
to find it's place
shining freedom over the diaspora
of those in need of your rhythm

dance queen dance!!!
