Black Poetry : rules of conduct

[TotalView]

1. I will never front you with my male spirit
cause I know if I do you will no longer see me
but will in fact see and hear a man and will respond
accordingly.
I a. I will never raise my voice above yours.
1 b. if there’s a disagreement that needs to be discussed
I will do it from a seated position hands folded in my lap.
will try to keep an even tone.
1c. I abhor the silent treatment. There will be none of that.
2. Sex is not a weapon. There will be no withholding
of intimacy just to win or make a point.
3. Gowns will be worn. Panties optional.
4. I’m affectionate. There will be a lot of touching
kissing hand holding and playing going on.
5. If you’re hungry, I will feed you.
6, I will maintain boundaries. The only ones
allowed to have a say in our relation will
be you and I.

boy I get it you got true money
but this woman serve pure honey
we don’t sell it where I’m from
gotta go somewhere else to buy you some
knockoffs come a penny a dozen
ain’t gotta be a faithful husband
all you gotta do is wave a few stacks
and they’ll come running in droves and packs
this seems like want you’re looking for
reason I’m staring at the exit door

Guides say, bitterness will corrupt your soul
must continue to love like you’ve been told
be caring no matter how hard
forget the flesh let your spirit take charge
you know your Him is not an infidel
King just stumbled across a ditch and fell
now it’s dark down in that hole
and his ankles are now swoll
take his hand help Him up the sun’s path
once there he himself will figure out the math

stop this soul sistah’s lyrics right in their tracks
Him rapping bout some chick with blue contacts
couldn’t read anything else after that
would say i’m surprised but raised by women wise
and know most men have roaming eyes
more than enough to annoy but he thinks it’s cute
so she thinking maybe it’s time to give Him the boot
he can’t go a week without making She salty
believing he can always talk me
out of leaving what’s he try achieving
swear sometimes I don’t know
maybe all this is just for show
