In Celebration of Ladies' History Month: Last Minute Thoughts

This has to be one of the ILLEST love pieces ever written! I didn't fall in love, I had a serious mind collision with it.

PS- Did I mention the author will be at my school April 2?!




I Wrote A Good Omelet by Nikki Giovanni

I wrote a good omelet...and ate
a hot poem... after loving you

Buttoned my car...and drove my
coat home...in the rain...
after loving you

I goed on red...and stopped on
green...floating somewhere in between...
being here and being there...
after loving you

I rolled my bed...turned down
my hair...slightly
confused but...I don't care...

Laid out my teeth...and gargled my
gown...then I stood
...and laid me down...

To sleep...
after loving you

(poem via Afro Poets)
