happy birthday, dianna!

you are my masses-of-braided-hair-extensions guru. we need to do that again.

i'm writing you a poem for your birthday.

dianna

you've got two n's in your name
because you abhor being the same
when life is looking down
you will make that frown
remember that time we went and got hair?
all those french black women didn't use nair
said rude things about us in their frog language
against which slurs i took quite a bit of umbrage
that didn't really rhyme, but i don't care
because today's the day you came into the world bare

that was a terrible poem. happy birthday.

p.s. the 4 things on your amazon wish list are from 2002. are they even still valid?
