whoa!!! I've been gone from the forum for a minute
but I see Bro. Rich is still bringing it!
Tight piece, bro - I am definitely feeling it!
righteous flow
so sad, but so true
i guess we've learned to expect such attitudes from non african peoples
but can somebody, anybody speak on these same attitudes
among my people? :(
Sister, sister, sister! :lol:
I couldn't suppress a wry giggle when I read your piece. One because we all know sisters and brothers like the ones you wrote about all into the one night. Then second because your location says Holland and I've never been there, but one thing is true I've met...
it's easy to rely on cliches
on rainy days
stuff i heard people say
about cloudy skies and
silver linings
and we all know nothing's gained by whining
but raging against what we cannot see?
this is a part of our majesty
for only in struggle can we
find divinity
i can't offer rose petal...
thanks everybody, I'm glad I'm not alone in this
if at some inopportune moment
I find myself faced again with
these thoughts that I gave life
I look at them in confusion
like a white mama seeing her black baby
for the first time and telling
her husband, 'darling I just don't know...
alright ya'll I know I'm not th only one with this madness
sometimes the words
they bang around my head
and fight each other to reach the end of my fingertips
and flow from my pen first
and then they burst forth
and i know i've said
something profound
and yet i have no idea what it is
Hey everybody! :grouphug:
I've been so busy lately that I haven't posted anything. I have dropped by to read what you guys have been putting out. Here's a little piece I found while going through some old journals. Ya'll be gentle, I was young - but oh how it felt like love :laugh...
