envelope

kept it [hot] for ten years now

strawberries crushed in white napkins (That is what it looked like when it got wet)

every girl turns type-dirty for you

run a tongue across the curves of your eyebrows

flirt a kiss across shoulder ridges

bitter to your bones

[ I write too personal ?]

[I didnt write this for you]

[The person( s ) I wrote about understand (s ) thoroughly]

I wrote you some letters, but some I cant find

I L st

I'm L st

Made a L st

At L st 

 come to the point

 been holding

 can't hold it anymore

Have to mail

Stamp

red ink on white (That is what it looks like when it's dry)

 black smudge tips on white

lick the glue

this is bitter

Smell the folded paper

I hope you get this

Taylor Pace's debut album "Return of the Phoenix"

Remember the first time you heard Bilal or Anthony Hamilton.
Made you think of  things like your first love, corn bread, or sunny saturdays didn't it?
Well you can relive all those feeling once again while listening to Taylor Pace's debut album "Return of the Phoenix ".

This son of a preacher man croons out angst ridden love songs  and upbeat tunes about hope. The album is musically brilliant and lyrically translucent. Listen for yourself.

sankofa143

drinking tons of pinot and looking at wedding dresses
I dont know why, I dont even have a boyfriend
The last one I sent 143 to, couldn't compute
The first one I sent those numbers to is married with kids, to be exact, 2.

I try my best to be all "woe is me"
but fuck the world because I really like "me"
and I know that I try my best so it's "all of yall" and NOT "me"

This is chapter two of my life
Im done growing and now Im looking back
if I was more of the "power to the people type" id get a Sankofa tattoo
but that is so unlike me,
to mark my body

If I look back...
 I stand in the mirror and look at my back
That is so like me
proud of every mark on my body


come to think of it.
 I probably wont even wear a dress on my wedding day
just show up naked
let every man see what they will never be able to have again
let my husband show me and my wonderful skin to all his groomsmen
let the church say "Amen"

So while Im here right now
I can see myself on that day drinking pinot and sitting in a wedding dress
and I'll look back at this day
take my dress off
and walk down the aisle
for chapter three of my life

and I'll say fuck the world
Im not promising to be with you

Then he will say "this is so like you"
and take his clothes off too
and he has the outline of a Sankofa tattoo that he was going to get, but then decided not to
