Beats-N-Rhymes

I use to love them
Equally.
(They) shared heart space
and abode in
equal shares of my devotion.
Inside both,
I placed my hopes and
those dreams they worked toward
with me.
Forming chapters of my history,
explored unfolding mysteries
in threesomes’ burning passions.
Fruit bearing interactions -
creative juices splashing
with fertility
to ripeness.
Until one produced a likeness
not my own.
What once was righteous
now was blown
all to hell.
A deep betrayal felt
within my bones.
I was compelled
to leave alone
that Jezebel.
Gave her share
unto the other.
Made it clear
I could not love a
infidel with changing colors
while her sister bore me art.
Sweet melodies
became a part
of all we did.
Be still my heart
that skipped
‘pon Jezebel’s return.
In a café on Fulton street
she spoke
of how much she had learned.
Showed me she had grown,
how maturity had burned
her conscience with
a true responsiveness
to our deep concerns.
Welcomed back into our fold
she filled a slightly different role -
putting words to the emotions
emanating from my soul
over rhythms her soul sister
and I lovingly composed.
Jezebel, was once rap lyrical
now Jezebel is my prose.

W T F ?!?






































Are these
muthafukaz really
rockin weaves?
Negro puh-leeze
pull yo tight-azz dungarees
from behind yo knees
and up over yo azz again!
Start lookin and
actin like men.
I get that daddy wasn’t there.
Feelinz hurt.
Got you frontin
like you don’t care,
but what the fuk that gotta do
with you sewin in some hair?
Or weavin in a beard?
Damned abomination…
Might as well be
wearin foundation
and blush.
Strong Sistaz screamin,
”They more woman than us
nowadays!”
So, if you gay, be gay!
It is what it is.
If you straight, be straight!
Brotha, handle your biz,
but you blurrin the line
like everything’s fine
looking hazy.
You crazy;
fukin outta your mind!
Sistaz I know
want security not questions.
Want conviction not suspicions
of illicit indiscretions
restin in the back of their brains.
Questioning if you
and your dude
got some fluid exchange
action in before goin back to them!
Now I won’t accuse you
of being confused, dude,
but like that weave…
you sowin confusion,
and I don’t know
what you tryin to prove, man,
but it shouldn’t have to be so hard
to see what you are, my G!
