My Uncle Namon was my grandmother's older brother
If you asked him when he was born
He would have told you
In clear voice
"During cotton pickin' time"
Because cotton pickin' time was a time for black folks
Like May, June, July
Like Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas
Black ass poems. Black ass stories. Black ass art. Black ass life. Black ass love. Black ass hate. Black ass parenting. Black ass depression. Black ass mania. And other stuff too.
