My black neck

My black neck

My black neck

My black neck

Mi cuello negra

Mi cuello negra

My black neck

My black neck

Mi cuello negra

Mi cuello negra

My black neck

My black neck

Black

Black

Black

Black …

gifted to me by my ancestors

From the divine motherland

Gifted to me by the Cemis from the other land

Gifted to me by the orchid from within

Gifted to me via slavery, resilience, and sin

Gifted to me strong, femme, free

Gifted to me liberated, joy is she
