the program *poem*


I tried
When i say i tried i mean i really did
I tried before and after then
When i tried while you lied and then when I'd leave
You'd call me a quitter
I tried while i cried
And you doled out your attention to the highest bidders
And I kept trying and you kept denying that there was an issue
I tried to hide the pain
When hurt so much just to stay with you
With all that i was and all that i am
I tried to abide
 By your stupid program
And you never acknowledged nor tried to fix the glitches
You kept coming home late from F##### other b#tches
You tried to keep it.in the dark
But i turned on all the light switches
 i rubbed you the right way
And you'd stay and still never grant my wishes
You ripped out my heart
And left this poor soul to sew the stitches
It hurt knowing you were using my money at the bar
It hurt seeing her lip gloss under the seat of my car
You said you were my man
Is that who you think you are?
no balm you tried to slather on was enough to heal my scars
You were a lie
The bitter greeting
The sweetest goodbye
The ever fleeting
Lover with whom i tried
To love above the stars in the sky
To play me for the fool
To be so bold
To take me to school
You damned assh#ole
To release inside of me
Love me and lie to me
Your life is a joke
Now you want to come.cry to ME?
I take no delight in you
 Reject the very sight of you
Go live your flawed program and take your worthless b#tches
that you thought were so tight with you

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...

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 ...

The First Time: Act Like You Know

" You know I care about you", he whined. He always seemed to whine when he was trying to persuade her. His brown eyes were wild and pleading. She didn't want to. She couldn't put a finger on why she didn't or when she would, but she just didn't. He still kept at it. What was a conversation became a debate. Every sentence said was in the form of an argument. He was stating his case. Why was he so passionate? "I'm not going to go anywhere. You know that." His frustration became apparent. He was annoyed with her for being so indecisive. He was impatient. He didn't want an answer, he wanted "the answer". She began to feel nervous. He did care for her, she knew that ... he isn't going anywhere... she knew that . Why was it so hard to give in? He finally relented with a few cuss words and turned his back to her. She felt like she upset him. Her nurturing instinct told her to make him feel better. She touched his shoulder, be...
