When Bitches step forward and make a man account for not only who he is, but what the womb-man really is, it's hard as fuck for a provincial mafuckka to digest! I get it, because I wanna get it. Because the Black Goddess wants me to get it. The language doesn't escape me. The visual imagery and subtext is not above me, and the majesty of who we all are should touch every Black man and Womb-man on levels that inspire them to think and create!

One.
