My favorite poem in For Colored Girls is “Somebody almost walked off wid all my stuff”Many of us know what that feels like, for someone to find you whole, happy and for them to deliberately leave you broken & so confused becoz they walked off with parts of you that made you alive
One time an ex slapped me over a trivial issue,was about to leave then I saw him standing outside & I knew I couldn't let it slide
I found an old palm slippers in the passage & wiped him hard at the back of his neck then ran
Didn't look back till I got home
That was the end!
