My lips

My Lips

Sensual, Orgasmic, Luscious

My Lips

Greeters of the world

Heat seeking pleasure giving instruments of

orgasmic delight

Enthralling it's victims with moments

of mind bending appetite loving pleasure

Sultry, Sassy, Pouty

My lips

That speak volumes

of game and round the way rhymes

Delving into the very essence of your being

Leaving the sweetest fragrance of my name

Imprinted on your mind

My lips

Senders of love

Curing scrapes, imaginary and real boos

the healers of crushed self esteem

Eloquent, Proud, Ordained

My lips

The givers of history

The tellers of ancestral tales

Singing songs of spiritual moving my people on

My lips

Once objects of shame

Now worn proudly as they exclaim my heritage

As those who once put me down now seek

their natural wonders

My lips

Pained, Split Hurting

From hands of violence that seek to squelch their power

As they find their power to stand again

My lips

Beautiful, Elegant, Soft

Touching the skin of new life

Blessing them into fruition and love

My lips

My gifts

My love

Me

Belonging

Belonging Is it wrong to want to belong to somebody? Commonly known as being appropriately placed or situated. The word still implies a level of possession. It removes humanity from the word and you become someone’s property. This definition would be hard for today’s woman to relate to. In this era of the of the strong feminist who have strived and conquered many obstacles, I feel like a tiny voice screaming against an ideal. When I say I miss belonging to a man, not as a possession, but in the security of being with the man I love. I sit on my couch and battle with the definition of the word belonging and its implications about my femininity. It is something I have found myself wanting unconsciously with each passing day. This echo grows louder in my mind as I engage in a relationship that leaves me breathless. The security I feel with this man as his love reigns over me leaves me fighting daily with wanting to succumb to him totally. The belonging I am thinking is the intimate exploration of emotions between two people who are willing to take the risk of wearing their emotions on their sleeves. It is the exposing of these emotions exclusively to each other, being naked to each other that connects deep within the spirit. As I think of this I think of my mom, who is a strong black woman, and her husband. I think of her happiness as she has evolved from pure feminism to being purely feminine. When asked about belonging, she unabashedly says, “I belong to him and he belongs to me, we belong to each other”. I watch her as she looks at her husband, and I realize she has succumbed to the love of a man, and he has succumbed to her. As I look out the window watching the rain drizzle I resolve myself to the meaning of the word belong. I realize he has given me this place to breathe. To be who I am: without apologies, or explanations. He has created a place of comfort in me and I have evolved. I feel the gentle strength of my man’s arms around my waist as he hugs me and I turn around to look at him. I think to myself…. I am – where I belong.

Is this the one

Is this the one

 

 

Is this the one

My mind screams to me

As I take in his masculinity

And breathe in the very soul of his being

As I watch the fluidity of his movements

And the nuances of his body come into play

Is this the one

I say in my prayers

As his mind touches my femininity

And he dances with my emotions

Bringing me to orgasmic highs

His laughter becomes my sunlight

His love my moonbeams on a sultry night

Is this the one

I speak to myself

As he plays intellectually with my mind

I swallow every sentence, every word, every line

He eloquently tickles the recesses of my mind

Bringing passion to fruition in my life

Is this the one

I sing in my heart

As he swings me about to the nearest star

His laughter becomes the symphony of my life

I listen hypnotized to the beat of his heart

As we connect soulfully and soar to the highest heights

And love to the deepest depths

Is this the one

Do Black Women scare off Black Men

My girlfriend sent me an article with the above title it was pretty deep, and she asked me the question was it possible, that we as black women scare off potential black men.   I told her yes, now I know that stating that is a controversial statement, and many will want me to turn in my card in the SBW (Super Black Women Club) yet if you here what I said and really think about it. It is quite possible just because of how we were raised  

 We as black woman are so used to holding the reigns in our private lives, that when we get into a relationship we don't want to give up that power.   We don't want to acknowledge that a relationship takes work, and sometimes I don't always have to be the winner.   Trust me sis I'm a strong black woman who has been in charge of her own life for a very long time.   But what I've learned from my marriage is that all those skills I used to govern my OWN life are not the skills I need in my marriage.   There is a LOT of COMPROMISE that takes place in a marriage. Look at that word careful and you will see the word PROMISE in there. Sometimes you have to PROMISE to yourself that you are going to treat this man with the respect he deserves, and PROMISE to yourself , that you are no less of a WOMAN for sometimes giving up the power.   I've learned a lot from my marriage and I'm still learning, my husband loves that I am a strong black woman, that I am independent he says that is on of the things that attracted him as it would any man.   A TRUE black man loves a STRONG black woman because that is an AWESOME team and that is what he needs in his life as he goes out and faces the world.   He needs to know his woman has got his back.   Black woman confuse the term MEEK and SUBMISSIVE for some reason they think it makes them less of a person and they will somehow become someones doormat. This causes a lot of conflict for woman who have controlled their own lives for so long, yet being MEEK doesn't make you weak, it makes you wise, it lets you know when to hold your tongue, and when to let things go.   It does not mean you don't stand up for yourself or let people walk all over you, but you can be ASSERTIVE without acting out of your name. I don't mind serving my husband, why not----if I don't do it than who will, does that make me less of a   woman, because I like to take care of my husband, and my household, or does that bring me closer to being the  woman of Psalms. I love taking care of my husband it brings me joy and pride.   I like making sure his clothes are clean, he has something to eat after working hard, that the house is taken care of, and that I'm ready for him.   Does that make me less of a STRONG BLACK woman---or does that make me a smart woman taking care of my house.   Hey financially I out do him right now and because I make the BIG BUCKS (lol) I have the right to make all the financial decisions right without having to consult him right.   WRONG we discuss the finances in the house, bills, major purchases and future goals of our family and ourselves.   Does that mean he tells me what to do-NO I am in a relationship and it's a join effort. Does that I mean I run to him for everything I purchase no   - I have my own money for that---but I don't make him feel that he is less of a man because he doesn't pull the same that I do---that's what the world is there for---why should I the woman he MARRIED remind him of that----his home should be a place where he finds refuge from the world--not a place to avoid.   Does this mean he gets all the benefits -NO- my husband cooks, cleans, grocery shops he is capable and does all the tings I can do and often does. Now remember I said a TRUE black man and if you are waiting on GOD for that man, he is going to send you that TRUE black man.   Look for the original article.  </span></span></p>

last night I stood tall and proud

Last night I flipped between MSNBC and CNN I wanted the results of the primaries in South Dakota and Montana. I wanted to know had he made it, did he have enough to finally put this thing in the bag. My heart fluttered, my stomach did flip flops was it possible that we could have our first black democratic nomination. Oh I listened to the pundits, the talk show host, and everyone state their opinion, but I needed to know and then their it was on TV those magic numbers he had done it. Oh my gosh I called my husband and yelled the news excited. He had to text me back but the chant was the same Obama! Obama! Obama! I had my children with me as we watched the speech given by him and was mesmerized. How did a black man win Montana we were amazed. I watched as the media began their frenzy on what would HIlary do, of course she would have to admit defeat, and concede. But no…there was the cold water to slap us in the face. She would not acknowledge defeat, but encouraged her supporters to contact her web site with ideas of what she should do. Are you serious!!!! What to do…..here' s an idea take the high road, concede and begin to unify this fractured and divided party. Show America that you aren't the bitch every one knows you to be…..show America that through this long arduous campaign you've grown beyond your normal boundaries. Wow was I asking for a lot. Instead she gave a self serving speech that down played a significant and historical moment. She didn't acknowledge this moment in history….she didn't even understand that she was a part of that history. When in America's political history has a black man and woman ever fought for the democratic nomination and be the front runners. But instead she decided to do something selfish and backstabbing. Yes backstabbing….Ms. Clinton showed her true colors throughout this whole campaign, she showed Black Americans that her loyalties lie with her. When she thought she had our support, and we were in her corner, we were her best friends. The moment she felt an doubt in our support for her she turned on us and kicked the Black vote to the curb, and turned us over to Obama, as though we were mindless people unable to formulate an opinion based on fact and truth. She ran a campaign based on identification politics, that she was an everyday blue collar white american and moved as far away from the black vote as possible. She showed her true colors in how she felt for Black Americans and what they stood for, and how important they were to her. She threw us under the bus people she no longer appreciated our support or what WE had done for her and her husband in the past. She no longer identified with the policies, concerns or causes. She has forgotten us and I suggest we begin to forget her. It was upsetting to see someone who had the respect of so many people decide to use her platform as a way to barter and use her 18 million plus votes as bargaining chips at a moment that should have been about the party and not about her. She has used this moment to demand and scheme her way onto a ticket that does not want her because she feels "entitled" to it. Entitlement does not make one a Vice president or even the president, it puts you right where she is now….on the losing side.

Last night I stood tall and proud of my country (yes I will say it for Michelle) I was proud of the fact, that a black man could win a state known as Big Sky, a state associated with hunting, sheep, horse ranches, and rifles. Last night I stood tall and proud of my country as they nominated a Black man to run for president of the United States….that this country has moved past color and are truly looking for a change. Do I believe that racism is dead….NO it's still there….West Virginia and Kentucky reminded us of that notion.
Yet I was able to shed a tear for country that was able to put its fear on the back seat and do something astounding for this country….now lets go after the whole thing. Elect this man PRESIDENT!!!!! Last night I stood tall and proud

Movement on the rise

Barack and the nomination Haven't had a chance to write and speak my mind. Of course there has been a feast of things to write about it, but the one thing on my mind right now is Obama. I listened to his speech last night. My that man can give a speech he is very good, plus it was a perfect stage to give his speech from there where it all started. Ok so now he has Oregon in his pocket, but lost Kentucky….is that a good thing? Is it a good thing if he wins the nomination and needs to pull Kentucky in November/ Remember it is going to take more than just black people to get him elected, he needs that white vote and it can't be just the upper middle class, it has also got to be blue collar workers, who for some reason feel Hilary is their best friend. This is something I do not truly understand, if anyone can sympathize with the plight of blue collar workers it is a black man. They pounced on him for being elitest—is that their way of discounting an educated black man who has been able to better himself inspite of his surroundings. Why are they not calling slur to HIlary come on when has she every in the last 12 years felt the plight of the common man. This is a woman who loaned her own campaign millions of dollars…..please explain to me how rich do you have to be to be able to drop a more than 10 million dollars to yourself, but he is the elitest. It's funny how they always have a name for black people when they beleive they are acting out of their culture. They (white media) look for different ways to discredit and discount this man, it can't be the fact he is well educated and has a plan for this country no…they always believe there has got to be someone else who is pulling the strings. Oh I know the media has loved him more than Hilary…I heard the whining she did I get it, but now the tables have turned. I sit there and listen to these left wing mind sets and wonder what world do they see. They claim to want a better world, a united world, but then they do their best to cut him down at any means necessary. They don't like their own candidate but they hate ours more. Boy when this man wins the nomination and eventually the presidency it's going to be rough on black folks remember to white people one black person represents 12 million. Well I wonder ….I guess we have to wait and see.

What the hell.......

As you know my mouth could not be left out of this  s I sit here and listen to the diatribe that is escaping from the mouths of most newscasters I know they are almost frothing over as rabid animals between the Sean Bell non conviction and Rev Wright speaking on Bill Moyer, they don't know what to do first.  Ok to my white people yes Al Sharpton is on TV and he is going to March and for most of you this should show he really doesn't care about the color of justice because if you look at 2/3 of the police he is marching against they are people of color only 1/3 of them is white, but of course I'm sure the media won't focus on that or wait......will they. Next Black people my next beef is with you....what the hell did you think was going to happen...did you really think....the New York City justice system was going to convict their finest in the killing of 3 black men. 3 black men that were in the wrong place, that were suspected of having guns, that had tried to run over 3 of New York's finest (now b4 y'all start sending hate mail I'm being sarcastic keep reading) You know it didn't matter that they had two witnesses that said no one had a gun, or that the officers never identified themselves no the police officer perceived a "a viable threat and shot until they no longer perceived that viable threat" and you believed a New York judge would see it any other way.  Then you have been misguided and bamboozled.  I know it would be nice for the justice system to just once swing our way when it came to these situations,  to let us come out on the winning side, but that' not going to win.  As long as we believe that this justice system was meant for us, it wasn't set up for us to win, it's been tampered with since the beginning and every time we get a loop hole, they change the law. I know it sounds harsh but we as black people gotta go back to the bible and remember be in the world but not of the world===you can't expect a group of people to be fair to you that don't accept you and as long as we thing they accept us we will continue to have problems with them.  They only time they accept us is when we are doing what they want us to do, the moment we challenge, or stand up for our rights, we become haters, angry, ungrateful and dare I say un-American.   Sean Bell died in a hail of bullets 50 bullets to be exact and it's not considered murder what if that boy had been white would it be murder then?

Forgotten Women

Forgotten Woman

 

I forgot I was woman

I’ve been your nursemaid for so long

I forgot I was a woman

I’ve worn the pants and been so strong

I forgot I was a woman

Waiting for you to get it right so we could be right

I forgot I was woman

I’ve given you space; a detriment to me

I forgot I was a woman

I’ve loved without passion in return

I forgot I was a woman

Sitting, hopping, and waiting for you to notice me

I forgot I was a woman

In need of passion you denied

I forgot I was a woman

Sitting on the side waiting for your touch

I forgot I was a woman

Waiting for warmth and flowers

I forgot I was a woman

As you satisfied yourself and left me waiting

I forgot I was a woman

As you walked over my emotions

I forgot I was a woman

My feelings on a shelf

As you find yourself

I forgot I was a woman

but now…..I remember

Do we negate our Black Folks

It has come to my attention that the political world is buzzing about McCain's choice for VP. It is also buzzing that on his short list is Condoleeza Rice. It got me to wondering about her perception amongst black people as a whole. In some circles she's fighting for the 'enemy' so they think less of her, others don't really care one way or another, but then there are those, that truly do not consider this woman to be part of the black cultural experience. Does her politics negate the things that she has done? Does it negate her blackness in the black community? Would you not tell your daughters that the first Black Secretary of State was Rice. I never have to agree with everything that is said or done by this person, but in my opinion it doesn't negate the steps she has taken to get where she has gotten or what she is doing. She has never denied being black, or that racism isn't prevalent, she grew up in Alabama during the civil right era, so she's not naive and she discusses her hardships in her book, which is a great biography on a wonderful woman. I just don't think one has to be a card carrying, flag waving in your face person to make strides or take steps against racism and I don't think what she has accomplished should be taken away from her either. As always this is just me

Encircled

My mind twirls at the thought of your touch
The meeting of our souls on an intimate landscape 
My soul naked, open before you in its innocence 
To yearn against your body and dance 
in rhythm through the night
To tingle under my skin, when you caress my nature 
Looking for that last reprise 
To take me with each stroke you make me your own 
I part my black sea and receive in me 
Your love, your passion I receive you 
The meeting of the minds and the meeting of our souls
As I continue to arch and cling to your every move
I am your mistress in the night
Bridled with a fever aching in my soul
I yell to God religiously for only he could understand 
The rawness of what I feel 
Climbing to the mountain top and falling in laughter and delight 
Not knowing where you begin and I end. 
I study the lines of your face 
And every nuance of your body comes into play 
Your circle me with your warmth 
Your kiss brushes my face 
And I fall asleep entwined, encircled and in love
