My Key Earrings, My Hat, & My Soul

No Make Up On My Face, No Weave On My Head, No Fake Finger Nails, No Tattoos, No Material Things To Tell. 
My Skin Is Colored & My Soul Is A Rainbow. 
I'm Fruit Dipped In Sweet Dreams Herb Tea With Chamomile & Mint.
I'm All Natural. Caffeine Free.
Fighting This Constant Battle Between What Makes Me Comfortable & Business Clothes.
Dancing In White Snow As Bright As The Morning Sun.
I Walk In My Glow In A Place Where No One Has My Face.
I Laugh Because I've Wasted So Many Tears Crying Over The Girl Who I Was Afraid To Be.
I Don't Drive The Latest Ride, Neither Am I Made Out Of Gold.
But I'm All That To Me When I Got On My Key Earrings, My Hat, & My Soul.
They Say I'm Weird & Call Me Strange.
I Smile Because At The Same Time...I Pull You Into My Sick Abnormal Place.  
I Wish That Roads Of Words, Gold & Silver, & Riches Untold...Seduced Me. 
But That's The Difference Between Me & America.
America Now Runs On Blood & Tears. 
Coco Runs On Milk & Honey.
My Eyes Are Green.
Green Because I'm Whole. 


Questions For The Lost: 
What's The Color Of Your Soul??
Do You Judge Me Because Of My Clothes??
Do You Laugh At Me Because I Wear My Old House Keys On My Ear Everywhere I Go??
Do You Think I'm Too Far Left To Be Part Of Your Crew??
Does My Liberty, Free Speech Offend You??


I Told You That I Had Everything I Need.
All I Must Hold On To Is...Me.
What Can The Love Of Money, Obsession With Appearance, & New Shoes Do For Me That My Own Soul Can't Touch Or Reach??
If I Were A Moon...I Would Be Green.
Saving All My Energy From The Material Things.
If You Can't Look & Spiritually See That Those Things Don't Define Me.
Then You Will Never Fully Understand Me. 
I Got A Love In My Lungs, Hope In My Bones, & Acceptance In My Soul.


To The Lost Little Girls...Please Learn To Be Comfortable In Your Own Skin!!
For It's The Way I Love That Makes Me Beautiful Within.
I'm All That & So Much More.
You Keep All Your Silver & Gold.
I Got Wisdom.
I Got Knowledge.
I Got My Key Earrings, My Hat, & My Soul.
Who Could Ask For Anything More???
