Sense Of A Woman *Poem*



You led me to believe
You were all about us
The lies I received
Sown seeds of foolish trust
You were sure to twist your words
Into melodic tones heard
Shame on  my foolish ears
And when I told you I was entranced by your sound
…You didn’t even care
You were love’s pied piper
The musical viper
You blew smoke up my ass
never even knew I was in a cypher
Puff, puff pass
Rotating your women fast
When you get lonely
Then someone’s your only
Because the high didn’t last
Go get your smoke on
Your morally broke on
I hope you choke on the same smoke
That you encouraged me to toke on
I hope that she gets a whiff of me
The isolated memory
Of a woman that was doing
More than your heavy lidded eyes
 had the sense to see
I hope she sees the truth in you
The backward little things you do
I hope she gets a taste
of what you ate
When you licked love off of my dinner plate
I hope she smells the hell that you’re going to bring
I hope hears the lie when you try to say
she’s your everything
I’m done with your drug, I don’t want anymore
It’s a cheap high,
not worth the try
that left me feeling sore
take your song and your stash
and walk out the door
no sight, sound, speech, scent or taste
no me
anymore.

K-Ci & Jo-Jo Come Clean.... : REVIEW

When I heard that K-Ci and Jo-Jo were coming out with a reality show documenting their experience going through rehab, I was excited. The first thing I wanted to know was which one was K-Ci and which one was Jo-Jo (yes, it has been that long since I have seen let alone heard of them since highschool). I always loved Jodeci and when the two lead singers of the group branched off and made a few ballads I looked forward to hearing more, but more never came. Years passed by and I continued to play their hits and came to terms with the fact that this group was never going to reunite and the two brothers whose vocals lead the group to super stardom with were coked up and out for the count. Enter K-Ci and Jo-Jo: Coming Clean. I figured they were going to finally boot the snow blizzard that packed their nostrils. WRONG. They are kicking the alcohol habit. They claim that there was never a drug problem. We all have heard otherwise, but they insist. If moscato can turn me into what these t...

When History Repeats Itself...

My mom raised three kids on her own. My close friend Sandra's* mom raised two kids on her own. My friend Lana* is a product of a married household. Let me tell you some more facts: I am now a single mom raising two kids on my own. My sister is a single mother raising two kids. Sandra is a single mom raising three kids on her own. Lana is married, with two children and more often than not, a stay at home mom. Lets take a look closer: My husband has always told me that I was destined to be a single mother. It is his belief that I didn't put in the effort required to keep our marriage afloat because I was far too receptive to being a single mother since that was the type of household that I came from. This may be true. I have no idea what a working marriage looks like since I wasn't the product of one. One of my brothers who grew up with my rolling stone of a father informed me that many of the flaws my husband had were the same flaws our father had. I found this to...

Admit It, You're Bitter!

For most, dating isn't easy (see " Dating Game (s) post). Can I be honest? I have no idea on where to begin! With each failed relationship, after sulking and licking your wounds one would hope that they have at least learned something from the experience. As much as we invest in these relationships, even after their demise we should hope to take something away from it. Whether that means that you no longer have tolerance for someone who doesn't make you happy, or finally realizing someone who only changes their underwear on special occasions may not be the right person for you... the bottom line is that you have standards. For me, standards were truly created and defined after navigating the terrain of turbulent relationships. Its not that I hadn't a clue of what I wanted in a partner, its just that a few go-rounds with the wrong person will let you know what you DON'T want in a partner. Negative experiences will often leave me far less receptive ...
