HAPPPPPPPPPPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!
Another week gone by with summer almost over :( sniff* sniff* didn't even get to surf, just kidding, lol, Delaleu don't surf, heck I need to take swimming lessons in case Brooklyn gets invaded by a tsunami.
So here goes the Gratitude...drumroll please!
1. The day off I had on Monday was well spent by cooking, painting and dancing around the house in my PJ's
2. Having my eyebrows threaded...much better and cheaper than wax plus less painful
3. Yummy spelt scones at Whole Food, have you ever had them? I'm addicted, i'll have to take pictures to show you guys
4. The inspiring boost I got from Aminah Love, Getzapped and Ananda regarding my latest paintings, Aminah described my paintings as Urban with an India Arie style, love it!! Thank you ladies for the vitamin C = Confidence
5. Collabo with my poetic Prince, still gushing reading our creation
6. the flyers are done and ready to be passed out for next month's event, they look sooooooooooo good, thanks to collabo between myself and Aminah, together we are sisters on the rise, love ya!
MY CONFESSION TO BLACK MOSES
Let your spirit filter through my fallopian tubes
Let me scream Jesus on a Sunday
and still shout out Lord have mercy on a Friday
I want to inhale your fetish impulsion
Like discovery in my lungs
Sing your masculinity on the lap of my celibacy
Leave your footprints on my torso
Give me an impromptu shiatsu rub
With the meat of your toes pressed against my spine
Fascinate me
Meticulously
Judiciously
Rain on me without modesty
Black Moses
Look…I’m waiting for you to glance my way
Free me from bondage today
Give me this transfiguration
So I won’t stray
I want to hum your lust on top of Mount Zion
Airgraph your scroll of love like a gospel message in my heart
Then maybe your brothers will notice
Take time to praise the texture of my kinks
And stroll their eyes on this African heritage
Hidden behind the curvature of my lips
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe they will notice my Roots from a mile away
And my Kizzy smile dedicated to you

My flyer is prominently displayed outside my cubicle. I’ve picked two existing poems and I’ll be writing one for the occasion. :-)

Love Black Moses... what is getting your eyebrows threaded.. I guess I am behind the times... Glad I stopped by your blog again.. always something interesting to read
oooooooooo, threading! in grad school i had a pakistani friend who threaded her eyebrows so quickly, i had to hold her arm to see how it was done.
Stephen: There's no doubt in my mind that you will make it there to NY someday
Writer on board: thank you
Capucine: thanks for the visit, threaded is better and cleaner, plus not as painful cause it's just a thread
Fallen Angel: it looks easy to me but I wouldn't dare try it on myself just like waxing you must know what you're doing :)
