Black Girl Puddin'
Jennifer Bradley • September 5, 2019
Have you ever had a cup of some Black Girl Puddin'
Made you do things you thought you wouldn’t
Even worked things out when you thought it couldn’t
Now lets talk about the puddin' and what makes it unique
That have men of all races tripping over their feet
Trying to sample this puddin' even if it’s discreet
It has raised a family by itself alone
Has nourished a child who wasn’t its own
Some criticize the puddin' for being way too strong
Black Girl Puddin' at its best is complex
Overlooked and underrated when compared to the rest
But the recipe to this puddin' only uses the best
This age defying goodness can compare to wine
It never expires, but gets better with time
The essence of the puddin' is not easily defined
You see Black Girl Puddin' is creamy and thick
Sweet like sugar, buttery rich
With a dash of spice to give it a kick
Indulge in mocha, latte, chocolate or cream
Hot caramel crunch, or roasted vanilla bean
This puddin' packs flavors like none you ever seen
Black Girl Puddin' is boundless and timeless, no one can deny
With true class it surpasses a past riveted by history's lie
Possesses the sweetness of sugarcane, but yet bitterness at times
All hail to the Black Girl Puddin', it has earned it’s place
Counted out by many now it’s winning the race
Grab yourself a cup of this puddin' and be blessed by it’s grace
