Ebony Hair
|
Each bundle of braided hair,
an empty lane without dirt and mud,
to the root of his scalp,
meeting his ebony skin,
where each one firmly pinned,
into the fleshy surface of the head.
Dark auburn in sunlight,
shiny like a twirling disk in motion,
reflecting its natural color,
upon his dark face...never lost its African curl.
His bundle of braided hair,
inherited and treasured as something of a rare.
