Do you still check and update this? I think you do, I've had such challenges around consistency lately. Darkness trying to wrap itself around my neck, but I smile rays of gratitude and laugh praises of true love, blasting that bullshit to Hades!

My Sistah, My Love:
Thank you for being here. You know I love you, but do you know I need you, I couldn't have become this me without you, I wouldn't know what I know if you hadn't taught me? You and Saundra have supported my becoming and I just simply revere you both. What you bring here is irreplaceable.
In Love,
Fisiwe

tell me why

for the first time, i am "doing" a love relationship the right way. no plans to marry. no living with me before i've decided whether or not having a job matters. no unnecessary explanations to my children because there are no pdas before them. no waking up and walking into mommy's room and wondering, "Who the hell is that?" Nope. This time, I decided to be smart. Have not even told my closest friends about this one. I'm watching, I'm waiting. For the first time, maybe I am actually making a man… Continue

something new, the truth to all of this, revealed, open and unabashedly...visit, comment, and share experiences. I think I'll have a good mixture of hoodfolk, intellectuals, nationalists, poets...hopefully, some emcees, and the thing that will get me killed one day...young, good-looking men... we'll see what happens.

cant run from it

How often and thoroughly i seek to run from destiny. who wants to be responsible, who wants to be great? not me certainly, but it seems the more i make a conscious effort to retreat into my soul and the corners of the earth only the lowly are unafraid to inhabit, the more apparent it becomes to me that i am truly some kind of artist. there is a noise that it seems only the artist can hear. for me, this noise is compounded because i have developed another kind of sensitivity. i am an incredibly,… Continue

when i am smiling

Zora Neale Hurston is one of my favorite writers. In a lot of ways, I am a lot like her. Often misunderstood, often wrongly quoted, more often accused of "setting back feminism and the race" and like her, my genius is often unnoticed until people no longer have direct access to me. Zora loved the spiritual arts and she unapologetically loved being Black. Sure, we are African-American and those of us who are bold proclaim African Afrykan, however, there is something unique about being d… Continue

children of privilege

There are moments when i am so clear
about the sacrifices and benefits of
the same then there are the others
i have railed roiled and rallied against
the cold space and pain that comes
at night

i wonder how thoroughly i must fight
fight not to let just anyone occupy
the space that should be reserved
for someone
worthy

how thoroughly i must hold my stance
protect the sanctity of my golden heart
and platinum pussy
how thoroughly i must be the change
i wish to see in the world

i wonder how much… Continue

Holy is Her Water

Holy, like the air
she gave me to breathe
Is my love of her.
Blue hues of joy color my aura
When her accented voice utters praise.

I am coming forth by day.

Disruptions are not allowed as I build and rebuild.
Space is only opened by the carver
not me.

I script my story a lot more haltingly than I used to
And manage to somehow still be at peace.

"Security AND Passion" A Response to My Sistah's Blog "Security Over Passion?"

PLEASE CHECK OUT QWEEN IYAPIPHANY'S BLOG SPOT @ http://blackloveadvocate.blogspot.com

My God Sis! You just crack my soul open and have me spilling all over...the way you hold the truth to light and blind me with the prismatic rays! I so love you. We are on a journey of simultaneously diverging and converging streams that flow from eternity into eternity and how in the world are we ever to have any lasting clarity in that? I don't know that God really wants that for us. I think it is a human mad… Continue

"...not dreaming something she was supposed to be dreaming."

"...not dreaming something she was supposed to be dreaming."

A sister friend of mine has this quote tagged to the bottom of her e-mails and it struck me like a brick! I learned it is from Toni Morrison's Tar Baby which I read so long ago, I think I was a teenager. I don't recall the context but I can't shake the notion as it fits me right now. Seems like it has always fit me. I feel like I am always on the brink of knowing something I should know but always stepping around, or over the knowledg… Continue
