The Good Kind of Bad
Trying to Tell My Best Friend She Is Good Enough
She think she bad/
Like cookies with milk chips/
sweet and salty nostalgia/
Like popsicle drop down sticky ant hill hands/
to cement/ and she is.
Is way more than mulatto/
good like molasses/ take her time/
there's a porch that lives in her belly/
it got a swing for two children/ turned lovers/
and I can see her/ dance around her bedroom/
through her window eyes/ there's a home in her/
make a red carpet out of her tongue/
with her good for lovin' mouth/
her sweat smell like Mississippi/
like wheat field runnin'/ and she got honey
on the ends of her hair.
So she allowed to think she bad.
when everything about her is home/
everything about her is euphoria/ taking trips with ethereal/
she be something else/
she be Amazon lady with three arms/
and ample breasts/ and three hair/
there/ you'll see the center of the universe
in her chest/ so she allowed to think you bad/
and when you fuckin' her
I hope you know you shiftin' tectonic plates/
let the people know a miracle is happening/
make it dirty/
sticky/
love is made out of secret/
private things/
gather all the mess/
all the drippings/
and stir it in with your tea of choice/
ain't it the sweetest...so yes/
she allowed to think she bad/
when she's made of so much good.
