“i am me is the biggest lie i tell. my face is not even mine. it’s my mother’s painted over by my father’s. my soul is an image of God. my spirit - a drop. i am an expansion. home to fragments. a continuation of continuations. a leaf from a branch of a tree of the seed of eve. | pieces of me.” SelfPoetryFamilyIdentityFaith Farai Book:'PRETTY FOR A BLACK GIRL ' IS NOT A COMPLIMENT!
