Turning Her Back On Negativity by Gena Storm
Dedicated to my cousin Yvette and inspired by her picture…
*turning her back on negativity*
I saw this pic
instantly I knew what to do with it
noticing the comments about my
kinfolks butt
led me to believe people thought
despite her caption
it was some kinda joke
attention seeking perhaps
due to some moral relapse
made me head scratch
Vette ain’t even the type
don’t believe the hype
get yo mind right
a big booty
never equates stupid
she’s tired
exhausted
like me and many others
disgusted
life’s gotten awful in a hurry
people judge in a flurry
I heard your cry
cuz
and I picked up my pen
to write a wrong yet again
keep that negativity in the rear my dear
I got your back
plus I’m always here…
end piece
