Image for the poem A Piece For Nyx

A Piece For Nyx

She wore midnight
over her bones
and had
constellations
for eyes.

I'd gaze at her in awe

As her dark skin
lit up the world
about her

Head held high,
she never once
apologized
for the galaxies
resonating
beneath her flesh

Daughter of Africa

Scion of Aphrodite

My goddess Nyx
