"Tell him I am African hide hips and American bulimia; peace symbols are fixed onto assault rifles. It is the deepest kind of contradiction. IF I COULD WRITE THIS SHIT IN FIRE." I GOT GOOSEBUMPS UP AND DOWN MY ARMS AND LEGS. SLAY DOMINIQUE SLAY.
When she said “If I could write this shyt in 🔥” I think she’s relating to the magazine “FIRE” which was created by the trailblazing poets, artist and writers during the Harlem Renaissance era I’ve Langston, Zora, Bruce Nugent. Fire was unapologetically black, real, relevant, now and society black and white was ready for it.....
This may very well be my favorite slam poem...."The niece of exploitation on a rice and pancake box, come to collect the royalties on aunt Jemima and uncle Ben." Damn...
"IF I COULD WRITE THIS SHIT IN FIRE, I WOULD WRITE THIS SHIT IN FIRE!!!" Mission accomplished! This is the type of poetry that transcends the tropes of slam and enters the realm of timelessness. Can Dominique just go ahead and lead the revolution? O nevermind, I forgot "THIS IS A WAR CRY!!!"
I think you did just write that shit in fire!! Fire and wind cuz that blew me away and set ablaze my own rage within! One of the best poems I've ever had the privilege to hear!
I love your messages so much. Thank you for keeping the fire lit and being such a strong and powerful voice for all women. You are truly an inspiration.
if everyone had to say the dark part of them the world and bullies and everyone couldnt stand to listen bc the overpowering unmuted rage would be amazing
she went owffffff!!! spoke to my soullll!!!!! " I'm african wide hips and american bulimia" !!!
