Maya Angelou

Sepia Fashion Show

Their hair, pomaded, faces jaded bones protruding, hip-wise, the models strutted, backed and butted, then stuck their mouths out, lip-wise. They'd nasty manners, held like banners, while they looked down their nose-wise. I'd see ‘em in hell, before they'd sell me one thing they're wearing, clothes-wise. The Black Bourgeois, who all say “yah” when yeah is what they're meaning, should look around, both up and down, before they set out preening. “Indeed,” they swear, “that's what I'll wear when I go country-clubbing.” I'd remind them please, look at those knees, you got at Miss Ann's scrubbing.
