If I died in your arms tonight, let them say she died a Queen' s death. Behold, she sleeps royally. Let them say, Her countenance was as Nefertiti' s. Poised with strengthful silence. Let them say, she was as charismatic as Cleopatra. The calm storm. Let them say, she was as brave as Esther. Meek, with the heart of roaring lioness. Let them say she was a peaceful woman, her face would shine with God's majesty. Let them say she was the crown to her Husband's head, for she never brought him to shame. Mourn for me openly & cry, "Woe unto those that know not a love like ours." For they will say "Our brother weeps without ceasing" & at that moment, mourn no more.

Elvan says: An excellent tribute to Black womanhood; the Queen, who dares to live like royalty while touching the heart and mind of her soul mate, as well as protecting his and her honor. To bemoan such a lady is pure privilege. Peace |

Root Work
I besought Oshun to loose the riverbanks last night, She allowed the clouds to swell, There's been 43 crescent moons & rising suns since I've plucked the fragments of my face out of our Garden of love. Only to realize, that after meticulous tilling of the ground, the soil was barren, I pray she rains on you, until I'm satisfied.  |
1:11amLove is fleeting, blowing in the wind... |
For ChangoCan you feel me baby? Eye am the cool breeze before the storm, Eye am ink dripping from the poet's pen, The muse. Eye am mystery to the novel's author, Erotica to the Dominant's phallus, Eye am the Revolution's sensuality, Hennessy black, behind the wine cellar door, Do you see me baby? Eye am Oshun, swaying are my rivers of natural water, Sashay. The Goddess of Love Eye am, The Golden butterfly, Eye, am done & undone for you. |
The MuseIf only the words you speak were true , as opposed to falsehoods & deceit for which you relentlessly seep, from the follicles that lay dormant inside the black crevices of you, I'd be we. What is love but a frail thing? |
Love is?Relationships without spiritual depth are no more than bounced checks, null & void. |
