I DONT WANT TO HEAR ANY MORE BAD NEWS!

Instead of watchin' CNN... I'll flip to TV Land and take a peek at Rin Tin Tin... Instead of viewin' Fox News... I may catch Different Strokes or Hill Street Blues... Lord...just let Fiction take away from the friction reality has manifested... My heart, mind, and wits have been seriously tested... All I hear about are lay-offs natural disasters oil prices and vices that people turn towards as they approach hard times' door step... Media incites hysteria from everything dealing with polygamy… Continue

Mother: The Love of my Life

To my favorite girl who carried and nurtured me... ...Incandescent love lights of agape practically blinded me when I was extracted from the womb... Essential vitamins, minerals and everything spiritual... ...flowed through the umbilical As I hibernated within the tomb... Trimesters were the ultimate tester of time... A shine emitted as she smiled...looked at me and said: "You're all mine" Cute was I as the onlookers marveled ...but as I grew... Mom didn't hesitate to rap that behind in influe… Continue

within the liquidy stanzas?

SEXY IS COOL...BUT...

In life,
True advancements
are made
in the middle of the night
and windows are
blocked by shades...
When no one's lookin'
that's when one needs
to be cookin' up something
more positive...and more powerful
than ever before...
Elbow grease and midnight oil
go together like
leftovers and aluminum foil...

But not only at night...
What about during the weekends
and holidays when peers frolic
and parlay at the big social
and/… Continue

Haha! I didn't even get to the club, but I had a ball at Dave & Busters! It was great seeing you again. I'll keep you posted on any events I may be a part of while I'm in Atlanta in July. At some point, maybe we can consider doing a Greek Authors event in Atlanta (while I'm there, of course!) Let me know!
