Poem: Self Reflection

 Self Reflection

By Benita Blocker, 2022


Sensitive scalp, sensitive skin 

Misunderstood the artist within 

Nickel allergy; no pierced ears 

My jewelry has to be real so it won't kill.

I come in four different shades just like the seasons. 

I throw shade if you give me a reason. 

Never conceived, never tried.

Daughter of a Cancer, born with pride

And I'm a Virgo until I die.
