Good Hair Envy

Published Oct 1, 2007

Me nevva ask fi de hair mi bawn wit,

I acquired it through genes and DNA,

True dat,

Dem tink sey me get more fayva all the way,

If it's not dat,

Dem want fi pat mi head,

Mawning , noon and night,

Sometimes mi haffi ask, if dem

alright,

What is good hair anyway?

Straight?

Wavy?

Curly?

What about neat and tidy?

If there is good hair, there must be bad?

That assumption is very sad,

Thinking that nappy or kinky hair is unacceptable,

Can only make odder people gwon bad and tun into rebel,

Hair is lovely,

No matter the texture or origin,

Whether its processed or virgin,

As long as its kempt and pretty as a picture.
