Ego Trip by Nikki Giovanni |
I was born in the congo |
I walked to the fertile crescent and built |
The sphinx |
I designed a pyramid so tough that a star |
That only glows every one hundred years falls |
Into the center giving divine perfect light |
I am bad |
I sat on the throne |
Drinking nectar with allah |
I got hot and sent an ice age to europe |
To cool my thirst |
My oldest daughter is nefertiti |
The tears from my birth pains |
Created the nile |
I am a beautiful woman |
I gazed on the forest and burned |
Out the sahara desert |
With a packet of goat’s meat |
And a change of clothes |
I crossed it in two hours |
I am a gazelle so swift |
So swift you can’t catch me |
For a birthday present when he was three |
I gave my son hannibal an elephant |
He gave me rome for mother’s day |
My strength flows ever on |
My son noah built new/ark and |
I stood proudly at the helm |
As we sailed on a soft summer day |
I turned myself into myself and was |
Jesus |
Men intone my loving name |
All praises All praises |
I am the one who would save |
I sowed diamonds in my back yard |
My bowels deliver uranium |
The filings from my fingernails are |
Semi-precious jewels |
On a trip north |
I caught a cold and blew |
My nose giving oil to the arab world |
I am so hip even my errors are correct |
I sailed west to reach east and had to round off |
The earth as I went |
The hair from my head thinned and gold was laid |
Across three continents |
I am so perfect so divine so ethereal so surreal |
I cannot be comprehended except by my permission |
I mean… I…can fly |
Like a bird in the sky… |
