There is comfort in the creaking of the stairs
There is comfort in the creaking of the stairs.
Each creak guiding, reminding you of your place,
Between the rise and the run,
The rhythm within the space.
There is comfort in the creaking of the stairs.

Diary Of The Southern Queen Entry #9 {My Shawty}
{Diary Of The Southern Queen Entry #9} {My Shawty}
I am gaga for
you shawty
`n`
there's no
body like my
shawty
`n`
shawty you
make me fall
for you `n`
can't you see
what you are
doing to me as
I yell it to the
world around us
`n`
my shawty
recuse me from
the cold darkened
waters that I
was drowning in

Fall and Foster
I have an ax and a hammer.
With one hand I fall with the other I foster.
To the rise I fell.
With the fall I prosper.

Time
Time heals
but I put my time
in an ice cube
and now global warming
struck and the feelings
have been let loose

This Morning Was A Breath
This morning was a breath,
And the burdens were weightless.
My hair bounces as I walk,

It feels so good to just be seen.
The caress of you,
Reminds me of colorful views,
That used to be used to.
Today I am me -
And this me is brand new.

International Women's Day
Pages and pages of pink and pink
roses on dresses and slender chic drink,
All pictures pretty some might think
but none reflecting strength, and that's the thing:
Women's Day isn't all flowers and hearts
it's message shouldn't be limited before it starts,
we are more than our constituent parts
so today try to tear stereotypes apart -
Support our differences, our quirks,

These Wooden Boots
All I think of when I see these boots
is a hand full of dimes
squeaking at me through the leather
and broken soles that seem to grind
my feet to the ground
All I see is a row of wooden picture frames
and I count them, subtract them, divide them
into the hours that mark my sanity. Because I
am aware of time and can add, subtract, multiply
and divide it I breathe thro...
