Woman to Man

Woman to Man...

Man, I need you to be able to financially contribute to our well being and our livelihood. I cant do it all alone. We can't depend on only me. 

Need you to be able to hold me down. I'm holding myself down but I'm not in this alone; we need each other. I can't hold you down all on my own.

Where is your strength? Why excuses?  I need you.  To be able to life the financial burden of our needs for survival (rent, food, transportation, clothing, children,etc). These are our basic needs and I need you to put forth effort and do.

Not because the men before you did, but because you are grown. But you know my needs....the needs of our community. This is not new for today only. Our women should not have to go to prostitution because that's the only way she can get assistance from a man.  Like wow. I'm laying with you, but do you feel me?

Any man that expexts to be taken care of by a woman isnt ready for adulthood and has automatically failed his own children. But if he's not ready he should get ready. If a man feels that part of his needs is not to take care of his women and children then he is selfish and immature and should be happy to know that about himself and willing to grow.

First Wife Blues: A poly monologueystic poem

"How do I feel for real

when I see him kiss her lips just so;

His lips brush quicker on mine nowadays

But when he kisses hers it seems they kiss slow.

I see the way he looks at her

Sometimes he looks right past me

I see that newness in their eyes

And I can't see what THEY see in me

She would never even have him

 if it were not for me.

I helped to mold him into the man

 that she done stole from me.

(I know that's a lie)

 She's my sister, my heart, my friend; I hate I think that way

She's here because I prayed for her

And forever she will remain."

WAR:THE HYPOCRITE

In times like this we swallow hard
and sip the "glass-FULL" fate.
We deviate from fellowship
and cower down to hate.
And this (by "law" and in their eyes)
is right and just and condoned by man.
Though he knows deep down that killing's wrong;
blood's still on his hands.

CAUSE I AIN'T YO WOMAN

I KNOW WHY

I KNOW WHYYYY

CAUSE I AIN’T YO WOMAN

 I’M NOT PICKING UP THE PHONE TODAY

CAUSE I AIN’T GOTTA LIVE THIS WAY

NO MORE/BABY,

NO, NO MORE

IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING I TRIED

COMES BACK THROUGH THE SIDE

LIKE IT AIN’T ISH

AND I KNOW YOU FEEL ME

I KEEP GIVING YOU ANOTHER CHANCE

TO SHOW ME A LITTLE ROMANCE

BUT YOU TOO BUSY

AND I KNOW YOU FEEL ME

BUT WHEN I TRY TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

YOU MAKE IT AN ISSUE ABOUT MY HEALTH

AND I’M SAYING THAT NICELY

BUT YOU AIN’T RIGHT

MY FRIENDS SAY I SHOULD LEAVE YOUR SIDE

BUT I’D RATHER LIVE IN YOUR LIE

AND THOUGH I KNOW YOU ARE MY LIFE

I AIN’T NEVER GON BE YOUR WIFE

I KNOW WHY

I KNOW WHYYYY

CAUSE I AIN’T YO WOMAN

Thursday

I don't know what this means
It's like something from our dreams
Unique in that she's the very one we wanted
Did GOD bless us with that moment

My mind and soul won't believe that it was wrong
It's like the words to the perfect love song
It's like what love feels like already right now
I know that she's the one to whom we would say vows

Wow....and it even about the sex
It was just really the connection of love at it's best
AND I really don't even know how to say it at all
Love expressed in a triad at passion's door, loving the fall.

This is ours
Our love, our pain, our scene
And though others came before and hurt us
We regained our crowns, both king and queen

This isn't about anyone else
Just the peace from escaping the world
Safety and soundness in each other's eyes
Shut off, just a man and his girl
