Letters
In taking the time to place pen to paper writing my tangelo blend of
truth,
My shouts of I love you are tossed together with
PAST DUE and
“renew your subscription here”
All of us stuffed in canvas mailbags,
temporarily housed in the belly of Postal planes.
As the price of cutesy stamps lift like yeast
I hope this note brings you
Good tidings, [...]

For The Record

I love you…
Those three words, when spoken, will be recieved and registered by the recipients in different ways.
Some people take these words and can reciprocate the exact same sentiment, while others are threatened by them.
The way a person chooses to recieve the words, “I Love You”, is beyond my control.
I know that people’s actions can [...]

I Decided… Part 1

When I talk, you don’t listen. All I hear is silence when I speak. I know you don’t hear me because when I say hello, you respond with “huh”. You claim to have heard me, but you’re unable to relay anything back that I spoke to you. You’re being dishonest. Apparently, some one or some [...]

Inspired

Instead of encouraging our sons, nephews, brothers, etc. to go out and have sex like it’s a right of passage, let’s try enforcing some safe sex practices. Better yet, let’s encourage them to wait longer. Let’s encourage them to be responsible for their actions. Let’s encourage our young men to be strong, confident, and respectful. [...]

Gone for Too Long

Please allow me to apologize for my absence. It would seem that life has consumed all my free time and I have been unable to actually blog.
I’ve also neglected everyone on my RSS reader. I haven’t frequented many sites in the past month (or should I say most of the summer).
Between traveling and my forever [...]

Dreaming in Conception

Dreaming in Conception

The fullness of my belly
pooching out in its gentle roundness
will someday be the host to almond eyes and a bud mouth,
skin like tobacco, smelling of sweaty charcoal drenched in honey.
Or maybe wild hair and smilingly mysterious eyes, aquiline nose and
A smile that will teach Con Ed a little about sunshine,
Natural light,
Resource conservation
recycling [...]

Cyber Love

Word on the street is love cannot be found on the internet because you have to be in someone’s presence to experience real love. I don’t agree at all. Love can be felt whether you’re cheek to cheek, or millions of miles away. Love in my opinion is an energy that doesn’t need physical interaction [...]

Oh Brother!

When I think of perfection
You’re the first thing I see
Because ever since I could recall
That’s what you’ve been to me
Instrumental in my growth
Even though I’m a bit older
Anytime I need to
I could lean on your shoulder
You’re the light shining brightly
On the darkest of days
And a phenomenal man
I wish more had your ways
I love that you’re [...]

My Number System

The reason I decided to blog this is because for the last 5-6 years or so, I have noticed a pattern when it comes to numbers with me. I used to think that coincidence was the reason behind why I seemed to always look at the clock at 3:33 and 12:34.
Today, I was searching “Google” [...]

Physical Mentality

Respect You… Respect Me…
Believe in you… Believe in me…
Care for you… Care for me…
Love you… Love me…
Be honest with you… Be honest with me…
Cherish you… Cherish me…
Trust you… Trust me…
Be patient with you… Be patient with me…
Honor you… Honor me…
Inspire you… Inspire me…
Protect you… Protect me…
Laugh… Laugh some more…
Cry for you… Cry for me…
Laugh… Laugh [...]

B.I.G (Believing In God)

**This post chronicles events that transpired just a week ago**
Sitting here at this computer desk, I am reflecting on some things that have been on my mind as of late. One thing that is clear to me is that God is greater than any joy or pain I can feel in my mind, body, or [...]

Free Writing: I’m Perfect

Consider this a jack theme from the one of my fellow bloggers Ms. Q over at QMusings. The following free write is loosely based on her “I’m Perfect” post.
Free Writing: I’m Perfect
Life is funny in the way that is has presented itself. I often wonder why events and happenings turn out they way that they [...]
