My FAIR Lady

My Fair Lady

Tis wombman so filled with style and grace became the balanced one within me... HerStory...
Her Glory came like a meteorite...
passing through my earth...
my inner core bringing iron for strength and nickel for the four corners of the Universe. Essential.
Fire, air, water, and earth respectfully including the womb...
the fifth element of surprise,
Where the magnetic pull is natural and pure...
My Fair Lady, representing the wombman,
to which homage and discipline is noted and recorded for HER essence is divinely chosen to be in the mist of HER birthrite as a wombman...
highly respected and admired by those who have chosen...
My Fair Lady

Compass (A Message to the Black Man)

Compass (A Message to the Black Man)

Heading me in a direction of Peace
Eye ask that positive energy resonate within we...
Take me on tour of my inner ambitions
Take me on a mission with a vision of great intentions
Take me soaring in the sky on ground, or in the water of sweet dreams
Wishing and Striving to be in direct line of these things
Traveling agent producing cause to receive an effect
Such a powerful Kemetical HE authorizes change in the bases of our means.
HE represents a force that shines GREAT in us two.
Be our guiding light and yet refrain from blocking our way, the Holy Trinity awaits for your hand to raise for the guard of your heart in a El position your Temple must stand erect and pure, sure and divine we need your strength we need your mind.
We are searching and seeking for the Divinity in our Trinity

The Warriors REminder

I am awake
My mind is free
I am Creative
I love myself

My willpower is strong
I am brave
I practice patience
I don't judge folks
I give, not receive
I don't expect
I accept

I listen more than I talk
I know I'll change
I know you'll change
I'll hold on one more day
I start over when necessary
I create my own situations

I am cosmic
I do not have the answers
I desire to learn
I am the plan
I am strong
I am weak

I want to grow
I know I will I take responsibility
I hide myself from no one
I am on a journey a path
Warriors wall alone until another brave soul minds their mind to join
I won't let my focus change
Taking out the demons in my range
Living in a world that's all so fast
You must to make your purpose last

Violin

High pitched, walnut brown

Piercing, Searching, Soothing

Like a woman during childbirth,

  Like an instrumental lullaby

A mother's soft voice in your ear

               SOOTHING

Her most precious possession

               into peaceful

             hours of slumber.

We Did It

They said that we couldn't
That we wouldn't
That we can't
But we did
So they lied
NO longer bound to pots and pans
NO longer soccer moms and maids to our men
They said that we couldn't but we did
We have overcome the circumstance
We are now the pilots of planes,
Soaring to our Destiny
Soldiers in combat, as mighty as military men
They said that we couldn't but we did
PRINCETON and HARVARD are now within our reach
Just like roots of the tree, we are the lifeline
We were born to do more than teach
Young ladies to be seen and heard
Average, that is so absurd
They said we couldn't, yet we did
For we should scream and shout and jump about
To exclaim from the mountain tops
That we did it
For the women that fought before us
I know that they expect more of us
SEE the job is yet to be done
There has yet to be a woman
as the Head of the State
To reign and rule over United States
A woman in charge, in the chain of events
It has a nice ring
A woman in charge
In control of everything
THEY said that we couldn't
That we wouldn't
That we can't
But we did
WE DID IT

Drowning

Submerged in a dripping, sipping
Hot Humid Heavy was the cape
Ripping Tearing Stripping to escape
Stifling Suffocating Steaming Reeling
Searching for Relief from this devastating feeling
Clean Clear Cool was the pool
Cold Crisp Clashing with the dream
My love, My dream, My life now silenced
Drowned, Diluting, Sunken pronounced
My heart burn ? a fire for change
My dream was to see my world rearranged
My love was given to those around
And my life was taken amid no sound

As I sink fully aware in the pool of my reality

As the breathe is taken with this finality

I see the surface that offers me hope
Yet I choose to sink in life not cape

Teenage Struggles

How come were so caught up on drama?
Who likes us?
Who are our friends?
Why can't it just go away?
Everybody wants to fit in
With some crowd
Just be ourselves
Why can't we
Focus on our grades
And what we want to do with our lives?
Drugs are in schools?
Because we're pressured to have A's and B's
Which is very stressful
And when you tell your parents it's hard
They tell you
"We been through worse"
What they don't get to realize is the bullying is worse now
If you don't have the newest shoes
You're poor and you get roasted on
The saying 'stick and stones may break my bones and words will never hurt me'
That's a lie how come there more suicides in high school
Can it all Stop?

For Word

Thank you for the words I read
Thank you for the words I need
Thank you for the words so great
Thanks for words that raise debate,
Thanks for the words on my bookshelf
Thanx for the words I make myself
Thank you for words that make me cry
And words that leave me feeling dry.

Thanks for words that do inspire
And those words that burn like fire
Thanks for all the words I note
Thank you for all the words I quote,
I thank you for the words like me
Thanks for words that set me free
And I thank you for words like you
I always need a word or two.

Thanks for words that make things plain
And words that help me to explain
Thanks for words that make life fun
And words that help me overcome,
Thanks for words that make me rap
Thanks for words that make me clap
Thanks for words that make me smile
Thanks for words with grace and style.

Thanks for all those words that sing
Thanks for words are everything
Thanks for all the words like this
And little sloppy words like kiss,
Thanks for words like hip-hooray
And those cool words I like to say
Thanks for words that reach and touch
Thank you very, very much.

Love Poem for My People

Do not let artificial lamps
make strange shadows out of you
Do not dream
if you want your dreams
to come true
You knew how to sing
before you was issued a birth certificate
Turn off the stereo
this country gave you
it is out of order
Your breath is your promised land
If you want to feel very rich
look at your hands
that is where
the definition of magic
is located at

~Pedro Pietri

Literary Libations

Honor and Praise to the Most High
Who is known by many names and
Worshiped in many ways
The One Source and the One Force
Through which we live, move, and have our being.

Honor to the Ancestors, as well.
For there is an African Proverb which says,
"If you stand tall, it is because we stand
On the shoulders of our Ancestors."

Divine inspiration, sacred woman preparing her self in the midst of the storm

Creating Gods and Earths as the world turns strengthening OURstory
Voices strong and deep coming forth from within surrounding this space
In tune with harmony for fertile grounding
Where our seeds can grow in a world of opportunities
Protected and Uplifted by our Most High Men armed in Love and Unity for self and kind working with the rest to build the Bes shield in mind
Africa streaming through our veins leaving no room for doubt, fear, or shame

Divine inspiration, sacred woman preparing her self in the midst of the storm

A time has come for ALL to be come ONE
For nations to gather their minds
For one movement toward a higher spiritual vibration
To allow signals to come through your antennas down through your pin EL gland
To clear your pyramid and let the energy flow through your vocal cords
Moving through your chest cavity breathe young child breathe... through these mounds
Let your light shine for the forces have seen your light and want to reflect your essence
The Tree of Knowledge and Wisdom lives within you
REsurrect, REclaim, REtune thySELF
The skin we in represents eternal life

Keep a Living
There are many days
There are many nights
Many stars that shine bright
With the world spinning round and round
And moods going up and down
Through the memories of moments of Joy and Pain
Eye listen to wise dome of an Elder going home...
Keep a Living
Let them with an ear hear... Keep a Living

Sometimes I feel like a Motherless Child

Sometimes I feel like a Motherless Child...
Her sweet lips left my face her adoring eyes filled with grace
..Left that place without that blissful state..
I lost my steering wheel so I lost control
She left me an empty vessel without a soul
Without my wheel my colors are gone
A pale cold child
A long way from home
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child...

In My Feelings

You say you love me
What ever that is
It's hard to believe you because I don't know how love feels
All I know is that we go back and forth and if that's what love is then I have to ignore it
You put me through a lot
The emotions won't stop
Tears coming down got my nose filled with snot Scared to let you know how I feel hoping you keep it real
Feelings going up and down and my heart keeps getting killed
It's hard to stop the pain knowing it won't be the same
If you leave out of my life what am I gonna gain
Scared to get any closer because my emotions is like a roller coaster
A roller coaster and you keep riding the hurt
I'm tired of hiding the feelings
They keep shining your love
I'm trying to find it
My eyes are still blinded but why am I still crying
Why?
Because love I still can't find it!

His Story

His Story

His story so vivid with details
Details mixed with tall tales
Tall tells that makes ghostsspells
Ghostspells that gives Hell to the understudy
Seemingly presenting a solution to a problem created by their own pollution

His Story

His Story taking from our glory
His Story given after the facts
After the audit of our accounts
They carefully examined our ways of being
Our existence became a mere coin-cidence
And they had no consequences to pay

His Story

His story creates choas, confusing without Maat Filled with parables spoken to infuse you with King James misleading views
Our scholar Hendrix-Clark Fathered,
'History should tell a people who they are, where they came from and what their potential is as a people'
But, His Story tells slave tales mixed with Africans in America's greatness but fails to give you background information

Attention Every ONE

Egypt reject,
Pyramid project,
Projecting your false reflection

Roughly shaped, tri and angle, your purpose for being
See the converging of a single point to the top of this sandy situation
1 building, 2 buildings, 3 buildings, 4...
The police are coming... knocking at this door
Every minute not for me but for Johnny down the street or Missy around the corner.
Checking to see if I'd seen them this morning...
Well, mourning it is, for I cry with every knock for our Herus to fly...
From the cracks of their arms,
From the crack that breaks their mother's back,
their children's smile and their dignity for the while

Egypt reject,
Pyramid project,
Projecting your false reflection

You are a sleeping God
Do you remember?
Stand tall in the mist of it ALL
Climb high to the all seeing eye
Look through the soul of the forever Moor
Love, Truth, Peace, Freedom, and Just us
Look to the ancient soul of us coming forth by day and setting legendary examples by night

Egypt reject,
Pyramid project,
Projecting your false reflection

Stolen Legacy rebuild we
Sankofa reclaim we
Into a natural being fit for a Queen, a King, a God, and a Goddess that reigns
Temple of Dendera send signs that keep us going around
In circles...
Circles of greatness from Bes to Aset from Ausar to Imhotep
Study to show thyself approved
Rightly dividing the word of God
Seeking truth beyond you
Where we coming from is bigger than I and bigger than you
Muhammadan's, Christian's, and Buddha's, too.
Our walk of life include these rites
We are the anointed that we shout about
We are the Zen that we seek balance in
We are the ones of peace but willing to protect our being by any means... necessary
For that does not mean we are violent but sick and tired of being sick and tired
We know our worth is greater than the certificate we put our birth on
Greater than the stock you have in it
And greater than the situations we fallIN

Egypt reject
Pyramid project
Projecting your false reflection

Community Visions written like hieroglyphics
Engraved in the temples of us all
Foundations concrete
Productivity from the minds to the streets to bodies filled with heat
Burning with the desire to rise higher
Education, Food, Clothing and Shelter is the Commerce we need
Knowledge of Self creates Spiritual, Physical, and Mental seeds to plant a garden of original beings

Egypt resurrected
Pyramid connected
We are now truly Reflecting

A Child's Heart

I took a piece of living clay,
And idly molded it one day.
And as my fingers pressed it still,
It moved and yielded to my will.
I came again when days were past,
The piece of clay was hard at last.
The shape I gave it still it bore,
And I could change it nevermore.

I took a piece of living clay,
And gently formed it, day by day,
I molded it with power and art---
A young child's soft and yielding heart.
I came again when years were gone,
He was a man I looked upon.
He still that early impress bore,
And I could change him, nevermore.

A Successful Teacher

If you love your students
for who they are,
not for what they do,
If you can offer greater dreams,
even to a few....
If you can touch a single life
and improve it for one day,
If you can bring encouragement
through the words you say....
If you can back up with your life
the truth of what you teach,
And take the time to listen to the
hearts you want to reach....
You'll find your classroom full each day
with eager minds to feed,
And as a teacher and a friend,
you always will succeed.

Mi Abuelito

Con sus ojitas llenos de alegria,
mi abuelito es como cuando el sol brilla,
su carino es immenso como el oceano,
Mi Abuelito mi brinda un buen consejo
Dando su vida en las cosas buenas
Mi Abuelito es el mejor.

El tiempo pasa rapido
mas un consejo mas un consejo mas meda
Y yo a un mas lo quiero
Mi Abuelito ya esta mas viejito
Pero tiene la fuerza para darme un abrazo,

Mi Abuelito comparte su amor con amigo
mas el te quiere y no te quiere un mal
Por eso digo con fuerzas en mi corazon
MI ABUELITO

Translation:
My Dear Loving Grandfather

With your eyes full of joy
My Dear Grandfather is like when the sun shines
Your caressing love is immense like the ocean
My Dear Grandfather brings me good advice
By giving your life in everything good
My Dear Grandfather is the best

The time passes rapidly
More advice you give me
And I desire more
My Grandfather now is very old
But still has the force to give me a hug
My Dear Grandfather and I share a love
Such that we wish each other no harm
For that I say with all the force of my heart
My DEAREST GRANDFATHER

A Moment of Silence

Grandparents are important,
They've stretched it into a mile, when it was an inch,
Grandparents make all of the love on this earth go round,
Moment for grandparents, SILENT,
No Sound

Ciara Mathis

A Grand's Nature

Their love comes from their heart,
And their wrinkles, a work of art,
Their hair so light and thin,
Their blurry vision from their eyes,
But their words so clear and wise,
There is a lesson to be taught,
Who will teach?
The ones who fought, they're the love that helped you survive,
Thank God for every year they're alive.

Elders

Thank you for being here for many years.
Taking care of your children, their children, and their children's children.
Thank you for spending HARD, long hours working, cooking, cleaning.
For encouraging your children and grandchildren to do right and live right.
Old beautiful creations thank you for being here.

Love,

GRANDparents

Grandparents are always there to pick you up when you are down,
To give you life lessons when you smile and when you frown,
To give you warm hugs and plenty love,
They're always sweet and delicate like white pretty doves,
They're people you look up to everyday of the week,
They will always love you to the highest peak.
