For the women with hearts ignited by divine fire

For the women with hearts ignited by divine fire,
Who love with an intensity that surpasses all boundaries,
With voices echoing like a call through the mountains,
Proud and confident, like lions reigning in the wild.
For the women with souls painted in vivid colors,
As varied as the stars in the night sky,
Strange and wild, like an uncharted forest,
Who

SSRI

Why do I have to choose between a pill for my sanity and my sexual desire? 
I don’t want to feel ashamed for going weeks or months with no desire. 
I want to be affectionate. 
I want to be intimate. 
I want to want.

Just two ways to go

Pray, what use vouching witless words so vain?
For men to trail, only two trails seem sane: 
Youthful beauty’s well-bestowed a bosom,
Retire or else to woods, make ho nor hum.

It's gonna be a long night

I watched the moon. Hide once behind the clouds.
Do you know how many times you made me proud? 
I'm gonna speak to them now. A million times allowed.
Because you are what, let me hide behind the clouds
Won't you turn around, please, and let me be seen?
For everything we are and everything that we've been..
I promise

XXL Is Beautiful

XXL women may not be limelight’s bet
But golly, we're blue chips in the market.
Guy buddies say they like plus- figures more,
Because there is punk in us to explore.
Media buzz makes flat models look so grand
It's annoying to  think they are in command;
Oprah, Latifah weigh two hundred pounds
Plus- sized kind of beauty walks on awed

I Will Not Stop

He says –
“Your place is in the kitchen,”
I say –
“My place is wherever
my thoughts can reach.

No curtain will confine me,
no wall will surround me.
My words will become swords,
my steps will rewrite history.

I have learned –
to fight without fear,
to live without bowing down,
and to turn dreams into reality.

I am not just a woman,
I am a revolution

Women's Dream

Almost asleep, 
almost awake, 
she floats 
where walls 
melt like 
sugar in rain.

Her breath 
becomes wind, 
her skin 
becomes sky, 
her heart 
becomes 
all the hearts 
that ever beat.

In this
soft place 
between yes and no, 
between here and there, 
she grows 
larger than 
any name 
they gave her.

She dreams 
herself wide 
as the world, 
endless

Deception

I’ll fall in love with the ideas you give
But never match the expectations you demanded 
I’ll worship your existence and every word you say 
And yet you’ll always bring me down to the cold ground

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

Rich Aunt Sue

she is batty, bonkers, cranky, and crazed
with a cherry on top, her brain icing glazed.
demented, deranged, daffy, silly too
loco, looney tunes, a maniac, our Aunt Sue
Say that to her face I prissily suggest to the speaker
She would cut him out of her will, then he’d really be a squeaker.

Doctored

scalpel! 
gently saw at the sides of the face
let it fall apart at the seams 
now, put it up against yours
does it fit? is it a perfect match? 

it feels cold, unwelcoming
the eyebrows are far too thick
the nose is far too big
i hate it
it is not a perfect fit.

My Body, My Temple

This is MY body. MY temple. MY fortress,
It doesn't come with permissions through the way that I dress.

You have zero rights to do what you please,
If I show some skin, it doesn't make me a tease. 

You cannot grab my cookie and expect to be safe,
You should however prepare to be clocked in the face.

Insecure Women

You will know these women when you see them
The ones full of beauty thats nice and slim
It puts you in disbelief every now and again
These women think everyone wants their man
Name brand clothes, weave and makeup tells lies 
Pretty on the outside with pain hidden on inside
They try so hard because there is fear within
It's

Is it really hatred or something much deeper?

They told me I was pretty for a black girl
But if that is the case
You want me to interpret that as being special
That out of every black girl
Im the exception
To your pre conceived perception
To how you view a black woman

The only way to take it
Is as an insult
Black women are beautiful
But your attitude isn't
And when

A black woman's life

Stripped of dignity
A refusal of warmth
Forced palatability 
A black woman's life
A spectacle to society
Our pain Comedy
Silence our only company
In a world that chooses to ignore 

Our words speak with wisdom
They choose to echo
Educated and intellectual 
Our voices heed with warning
Our weakness our instinct to nurture
Despite their instinct to murder
We want the world to progress
