This collection will explore the delicate and complex balance of Black femininity. This is questioned & demonstrated in the simple question of what Black is; "Black 1", "Black 2: Chickens & Pigs", "Black 3: Burgundy & Chestnut", and "Burgundy & Chestnut". In other poems, C. challenges mythology and the difference between myth and reality in "A Few Words For The Goddesses". It also does this via appearance "Just Hair (& Sister Solange)", as well as through stories C. heard about the wonderful mothers and grandmothers that came before her "When They Ask" & "If", as well as the Mammy/ Aunt Sarah/ Aunt Chloe archetype in "The Archetype". The poems also follow the theme of becoming someone, in between being a Black woman. Finally, this collection shows C.'s interpretation of being not only Black, but being a woman, and understanding, tackling, and acknowledging her worth as such an identity.
