Why us?
Why as black women do we just have to accept everything Can't complain just accept the bare minimum Treated like mothers who didn't get a choice Forced into a life of sacrifice Treated like animals but stripped of dignity Our lives were never ours just a product of control Used and abused like some rag doll Dressed to...

In a world
In a world full of snakes How do you tell which is poisonous Each identical Yet some harmful In a world full of political parties How do we know which one is all inclusive Different paths But the same ending? In a world full of smiles How do you differentiate between lie and truth When promises are empty And lies become...

Drowning in a sea of their hate
Expectations No rest No time to breathe A weight on your chest Nothing less than excellence Even that's not enough A world that tells black people That even if you follow the rules You are still not good enough Because as long as your black They will always have the last laugh In a world that preaches equality It sure is a hypocrite From...

Premium Member Be Still
"Be still… and know God!" Present in every atom, manifestation of being: The chatter of the day -- our desires, fretting, unsettling nature of seemingly sometimes fathomless night – can turn us, unwittingly from ever alert angels~ vigilance of inner eyes who see all, inner ears, ever listening to a song of love, a tacit sense of divine vibration~ an ever present, eternal touch realized as awesome supernal intimacy...

ROSE-COLORED GLASSES “When you think about a show that you used to watch as a kid or as a teenager, you look at it through sort of rose-colored glasses…”Jordana Brewster ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In memory’s soft glow, the TV screen flickers alive, time stretches like taffy, the theme song lingers, a melody transporting me through the portal of childhood.

Premium Member My dear ones, years and accounts have passed since we spoke about the New Man, Le Horla
My dear ones, years and accounts have passed since we spoke about the New Man, "Le Horla." From the midpoint of the Reset cycle, it is known to emerge from the mix of slaves and technology.

Pacify my Soul
In a quiet corner of a crowded town Don't bear the blame with heads bow down Mistake — If not yours Then it's not yours. Trust yourself and stand beside you For no one knows you; better than you. Sleep, my soul—you’ve cried enough. The blame you carry is not your stuff. Love and hatred—a double-faced coin, Be it anything, you will be...
