Exotic - A poem by Suheir Hammad

Its been a while since I have been able to do any poetry or even get back into reading it but during another one of my youtube surfing sessions I found a clip of one of my favorite poems. I heard it once back in college when they brought the Def Poetry Jam to campus and I fell in love with Suheir's work. I love this poem because it has a meaning and an emotion that is hard to describe to easy to empathize with.
