Teach these black girls

to embrace their magical hair

that defies gravity.


Teach these black girls

to accept the powers

of their curls and coils.


Teach these black girls

the history

woven into their cornrows.


Teach these black girls

to take care of the crown

that has been handed to them.


Whether kinky or relaxed,

twisted or locked,

braided or wavy.


Teach these black girls

to love their hair,

for it is the mane

that has marched and resisted

just for them.
