Phenomenal Woman

There is a poem I was always so in love with-The first time I heard it I was so young I'm sure I didn’t know what it meant then. But I most defiantly do now. Let me tell you why. Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou. Now my girls know I wanted to get a verse of this tattooed on me forever now-I never understood why until recently but I guess we can blame this on my 6th sense like we do everything else cuz ya’ll know I'm weird like that. I was sitting on the patio at Friday’s talking to my sister; we we’re in the subject of a guy and I’m not sure how the conversation went this direction, but we were talking bout how it seems that he’s a watcher and doesn’t want just an average ho-yadayadya—Keesha got silent and looked at me and said “Phenomenal Woman, that’s what he wants, that’s you". I wasn’t expecting that-she’s right-that’s everything that poem represents. So then Mothers day comes up-I’m broke thinking of something to get mom that she would like. Then I thought let me find a poem she’ll like and ill rewrite it pretty for her. I read phenomenal woman-that’s her-that’s what I wrote.She loved it-cried even. Now I look at this poem totally different then what I ever had-This poem is me. It's you, It’s part of all of us.
But now--What part do I want on me? Might need to call on Meathead for this.
Phenomenal Woman

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.



Love/Loving/ToBeLoved


What exactly does it mean? sometimes I wonder. I’m a strange kind of person when it comes to that. I don’t believe in marriage. To me, marriage isn’t anything but a contract with the state. I have no reason to feel this way other then my own trials and tribulations- my parents and grandparents have all been married forever-maybe it’s just the bullshit Ive gone through and everyone else my age I know. There are no happy endings there are only right nows and today's. No piece of paper is going to change the way I feel or act in my life to tell me what I'm doing is right or wrong-bottom line is, it all comes down to LOYALTY. All that paper means is its gonna cost me money to get rid of you and instead of me being nice and giving you your shit back that paper says I get to keep it and maybe if you fucked up bad enough you ll have to pay me-but I don't want your fucking money. Of course, I imagine that would all change if I met the right person. But aren't they all the right person at some point?
Unfortunately I’m a hard person to deal with when it comes to this factor. I only have a heart that is so big which means I don’t spare any expense when it comes to love-I don’t love a little-I love with all and I only give that Love to very few people because I don't have any left over.-maybe that’s why its so strong. Ride or Die bitch.I know within 5minutes of meeting a man what role he will play in my life IF he plays one at all. I have only mistaken this 1 time. We all know who that was and it was unfortunately the best relationship I’ve ever had-if your willing to look over the drug addiction behind my back and the cheating on me with a pseudo lesbian part. At the same time though-I didn’t love him the way that I had others-it was a different love almost a close friendship, comfort. The brother I’m missing maybe?


I wonder why it is that I don’t feel the need to get to know someone and fall in love. I don’t need to know you to love you. I just feel it. Is that even possible? I would say no if it wasn’t for the fact that I have done this to many times. I don’t bother trying to get to know someone because anytime I have-that feeling was never there and it never showed up. I "Love" with all my heart, which in most cases, cause me to give it to those who deserve it least.

One thing is for sure-If I tell you I love you—That shit is real-Those are words I don’t waste. I don’t expect it back. I’m comforted just to know that you all know it-and you know who ya’ll are. Cuz Ya’ll’s my Nigga’s

I love you

In the pursuit of Happiness


Have you ever thought of what that actually means-I've heard it a million times. Its a famous quote, its in our Declaration of Independence even. In The Pursuit Of Happiness. We are chasing a dream to be happy. That seems to be what it's all about.

Libra daily horoscope for Saturday, May 29 2010 from DailyHoroscope by Comitic

You may not be where you want to be and thought you'd be by now, but that doesn't mean you aren't in a very good place. Don't allow your preconceived ideas of perfection to blind you from the fact that you are doing really well for yourself. If you waste time lamenting your current status, you will let a wealth of opportunities slip right through your grasp. Look around you, Libra. Things are pretty great. You may have a long way to go to get to your personal utopia, but you have the power to make the journey just as enjoyable as the destination will be.

alone

"We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and -- in spite of True Romance magazines -- we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness."

— Hunter S. Thompson (The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967)

Solitude

Be able to be alone. Lose not the advantage of solitude, and the society of thyself.--Thomas Browne

Isolation is aloneness that feels forced upon you, like a punishment. Solitude is aloneness you choose and embrace. I think great things can come out of solitude, out of going to a place where all is quiet except the beating of your heart.--Jeanne Marie Laskas

Solitude can be frightening because it invites us to meet a stranger we think we may not want to know--ourselves.--Melvyn Kinder

What a lovely surprise to discover how unlonely being alone can be.--Ellen Burstyn

When we cannot bear to be alone, it means we do not properly value the only companion we will have from birth to death--ourselves.--Eda LeShan
