Melanated
Melanated, consecrated, never accidental — a poem honoring the sacred inheritance carried in bronze skin.
Melanated
Elevated
Consecrated to
Never be underrated.
I walk in legacy—
A deeper royalty
Crowned in His-tory
Heaven in bronze skin.
Wordsmith
Truth-speak
Love anchored to
Never be dismissed.
You will see my melanin
Wrapped in feminine
A gift, complex and living
His love still speaking.
Gifted
Lifted
Firm-footed to
Never be shifted.
I make no apology
For being a protégé
In grace, gently urging
The world to savor Him.
