Inspiration Quarantine Poem

Little girl with the quixotic imagination
Do you ever stop dreaming?
From author to reporter
Reporter to meteorologist
Meteorologist to painter
Black child,
Little do you know you’ll spend a lifetime trying to be heard
Black sheep of the world,
Constantly being told you’re not good enough
Jobs continually saying you lack qualifications
Family pushing you to do better
All you want to do is create
Dive into your own imagination
And forget everything around you exists
Scorpio woman,
They no longer look at you as mysterious.
You can finally breathe.
They see you.
They see the greatness in you.
