Forty-six:
If you want to break a nation–kill fathers.
If you desire to break its heart—murder the sons of mothers.

Forty–seven:
It is in the bitterness of Black women’s tears,
does the nation see how deep suffering goes.
(c) JBHarris, 2019
Forty-eight:
In the breaking of a mother’s heart,
you seal the fate of the nation to be borne of her.

I am female, fiery and unapologetically Black. I'm in no position to mince words, so I don't. This writing, this craft, is what I delve in, drown in, and seek to master. From that mastering, comes portions of the divine through light and screen or ink and paper.
I invite you all on this journey of thought, conversations and other benevolence life has to offer.
You can also follow me on Twitter (@authorjbharris) and my networking page on Facebook (Jennifer P. Harris).
Thank you for stopping by and remember to live, love, write and repeat.
