I know I Know
but I love the way it
slides over my skin
damn near making me
Tap Out
with every buzzzzzzzzzzz
intended to trace
the outline of my butta.....fly
wait..........
lemme
readjust
for some more buzzzzzzz
Colorful extractions
filled my cup
drippin green soap on the flow
to satisfy my favorite smell
like lavender sage
forming a higher level
Wipe me down
breaking
my concentration down
to the peace of me
written Hebrew
nestled in the comfort of
my spine........
Kissed
reflections
from an upgraded past
covered and smothered
with new love
something like a perfectly
designed
bond of strength.........
Bless Me
Rockin this Key
To Life.
I’m Addicted
What’s Next??

So I felt the title of this was very appropriate being that Power is the reason why things grow or fall apart. Let's take a moment to elaborate on the meaning of power: According to the Merrium-Webster dictionary, power means to have "possession of control, authority, or influence over others."Okay now to my story..........It is necessary to have p...

During the long hours of travel in order to reach #TheMotherland, All I could Think was how long the hours must have been for my ancestors as they were transported across the ocean being brought to America.

It's amazing how we attack each other on a regular basis and it all stems from our past. In Lynch's speech, the differences of our people were used as a way to control how we viewed each other & how we view...
