Tears of regret

Children are a blessing.
I'm grateful to have two.
Healthy
Smart
Beautiful
One boy
One girl
All sunshine

But to a broken heart
Children are a curse of unending torment
A constant reminder that we
Were once loved
So much
The universe granted permission for us to create them.
Leaving no love that can ever compare

Vol 4

Vol 4

This is a womanifesta
Because sex is not a linear equation it is hyperbolae of divine creation
A multidimensional, extremely flexible, playground for pleasure seeking junkies needing a fix
My body is not a paint by numbers coloring book, it is abstract impressionist perfect imperfection on canvass that can only be felt by the soul
So close your eyes, pretend you are blind and read me as if my skin was a parchment of braille
There is no one size fits all blue print to an orgasm
Sultry silky Stimulation accessible from head to toes
Women contain more than two erogenous zones
you don't need to visit them all, just know that it's okay to take different routes every time
More importantly, it's okay to take your time
Explore the curves in the road to ecstasy
Don't race me there
Cause truthfully I could leave you stranded and standing at attention
Wouldnt you rather be straddled or tied up in loves affection?
Cause This womanifesta
Is a reminder
That physical love is to be enjoyed
Our bodies are to be cherished, appreciated, praised with tongues, hands, mouths, biting, passion, licking, spankings, toys (oh toys), eyes, asses an anything else you can think of that will get the job done
It's not always necessary to orgasm as long as I cum and at the end of it all we had some fun
Whether its just me and you or us and everyone




Sorry bout typos..: love & light

Ironic

Ironic

I can't stop laughing at the irony
That both she & he are leos
Lion & lioness
With almost a decade between them
Yet residing in the same sexual/emotional states
And me
Gemini In Saturn
in-between
Them





Sorry bout typos..: love & light

This is a womanifesta

This is a womanifesta
Because co-operation does not equal consent
And it's time we recognize the difference
possession is 9/10s of the law and as long as this body is mine I will do,
dress,
and fuck
as I please.
I have the right to say no
and be heard
I have the right to love who I want,
the way that I want
as long as it's not hurting anybody
My sexual orientation is not
To be an indication that I need to be "taught a lesson"or "converted back"
Because
I'm not confused
I know what love looks like
And when I see it,
Or someone deserving of it
I extend my heart without hesitation
I Take precaution
Use some common sense so
Please
Do me a favor & Put your dick back in your pants
until further notice
Regard this as your marching orders
From the women tired of being hypersexualized on screen, in music & real life
They try to hide the trespass as building an image for us to look up to
Instead leading us down a path that's empty & hollow
Using reality tv for brainwashing society
Keeping women complacent
whether the product is a Nikki Minaj
or a suzie homemaker
She is nothing more then a wanna be
carbon copy
eager to please,
slow to anger,
unconditionally accepting, doormat
It Keeps my nerves racked
on edge
Because children don't know the difference
between real life & the fantasy
And apparently
Neither do some political officials
For all their bells and whistles
the fact remains that we still teach women not to get raped
Instead of teaching men not to do it
They'll make any excuse to blame the victim
Tell us that they are responsible for the inability of another to respect our boundaries
That if you are too nice,
dressed too provocatively,
accept a drink,
flirt/smile
Enter a conversation
then he
Can take it as a sign that
it is on
Where I stand,
this shit has gone on too long
I will not be embracing of philosophies that tell my daughter if it happens
it's her fault.
And even more
She will have to live with the seed of his sin
A daily reminder of horrors in a face of innocence
There is no worse form of torture to engage in
This womanifesta is a rallying cry
A call to arms for all warrior
Womyn
to stand our ground
Respond to the declaration of war on our bodies & minds
In this country and worldwide
If we band together,
we can Change the tide
Show our foremothers that their fight for our rights
Was not a waste of time.

missed me?

You said you missed me

so when you kiss me

I want to feel it

want you to melt so deep  into me

we become a double helix

a tornado of passion

lets do some damage

make the neighbors feel it

so i know without a doubt

i'm the one you want to be with

even if i'm not the only one

and this is just for fun

baby just let me believe it

that you missed me

so when you kiss me 

close your eyes

look at  me with your soul's sight

hold me close and tight

like its prom night

and dancing cheek to cheek 

is the only thing less bittersweet

then parting before sunrise


so next time you kiss me, 

do it like you missed me

not as if wishing

your lips could be believed.

Womanifesta

Recently I had the pleasure and privilege to be the stage manager for a show called Vivesection by  the Re-writes of Passage Ensemble. It was a stunning, moving, and at times comic look at how women, particularly black women, are dissected, stereotyped, and scrutinized in out society every day. The show closed with powerful statements from each of the 5 women performing in the show. Each claiming their power through a "womanifesta". So inspired by them, I began writing a womanifesta of my own.

 

I feel as if this will be the first of  a series of womanifestas that I will be writing. In this last year of my 20's I am coming to the conclusion that a big part of my life's path is to do something to enlighten & empower the next generation of women coming up. Despite a lack of formal education, I recognize that I have wisdom and experiences to offer. I know too well how much of a difference a positive voice can make. So I hope this poem (and essentially the series) will be a stepping stone in that direction.. Beginning at home with my own daughter, whom I often write for and/or about and spreading like wildfire.

 

I hope you enjoy and thank you for reading (and/or sharing)

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

This is a womanifesta 

 

because I am more then the sum of my parts

because some of my parts cause malfunctions to the thinking process

and others don't process respect  as a right I was born with

when the temperature reaches 75 or higher

any exposed flesh on city streets

increases the catcalls of desire

As if they never had a mother, sister, aunt, or daughter

because  a Full sized real live grown woman wasn't made to contort to fit into catagories.

I crush the.boxes and check society every chance I get 

too few and far between is courtesy contagious 

and I...

 I am fed up, angry/agitated/ aggravated

because I don't eat enough to fuel the rational thought required to respond to ignorance and bigotry

I am not worthless because of your opinion of me

i am not a real housewife nor will i ever be

i am a sophisticated, intelligent, ambitious female, 

something like a lady

only more driven & determined to accomplish my dreams

no matter what the costs may be

i walk the line of self-destruction

some  say i'm uncivilized

cause i don't love like Lucy

won't leave shit to beaver

I'm ever empowered and eager

to take care of it on my own

I'm not the damsel in distress

i don't need to be saved

so leave me the fuck alone

stop yelling at me from a distance

or telling my back how beautiful it is

man up & talk to my face

that is/if you can find it

if you want to speak to me

i'm not addressing all men just these assholes in society

like evangelical republicans insisting on propriety

NEWSFLASH!!! WE LIVE IN A DEMOCRACY!!!!

I have bigger concerns then whether our head of state is a citizen

like the state of the city i reside in

but I digress

I don't make my ass clap for

these dollars I work harder then the pole you wish I'd straddle

Buckle up its gonna be a bumpy ride

if you think i'm angry now

honey you ain't seen nothing yet.

The wrath if a woman scorned aint got shit

on a woman torn/shredded to pieces by mixed media signals, stereotypes & cultural expctations.

heir apparent to a living legacy of food paranoia  &, excessive exercise,

just to go down a size

because invisible is the new black.

 

This is a fury of 29 year gestation

learning to conquer glass ceilings and fear

makes for an easy birth to confidence. 

Like breathing

I gladly strut my curvature on city streets,

bouncing my booty to my ipods beat,

proving true that the most awesome women have curves & tattoos!

We write our stories in symbol & song verse

, regurgitating our hurt for the broken hearted girls to learn from.

Letting  them know how amazing it feels to be your own shero,

that your worth cannot be weighed by the width of your waist or your weight.

and if you just wait

i promise it gets better

so drop the measuring tape,

eat that 3rd slice of pizza,

 erase the rules & write in your own.

Above all that the hold your head high

and be bold

be you

hold tight to your truth

become the most interesting person you've ever met

because the herstory you leave behind is important

and its waiting to be read.

 

 

-Love & Light
