Cursed

I was enchanted by this warlock of love

I thought I was loved by him, I fell in and

became mislaid in his world

Entrapped by him, my body and soul were

unknown to all his worldly ways

He mystified my mind, my thoughts were no

longer my own, he replaced them with his

twisted illusion of what love was supposed to be

My weakness in his arms left me voided, only

to be filled by his warped since of being

my true self was silenced by this warlock of love

But with open eyes I came to see that the

warlock was only a boy and in reality I was

the one who controlled this curse of love

A curse which had plagued me for years was

easily broken within a blink of an eye, with the

pure kiss of self worth

Lost and Found

My heart longs for the world to call me by

my ancestral name

while time serves as the dirt covering my

ancestors grave

The bread crumbs left on the trail to help

me find my way home

was eaten up by an eagle, dissolved by crescent

moons and six point stars

And my heart is crying because everyone is

laying claim to my place

suicide bombings, war and conflict, turn a

once Holy Land into a desolate place

While I sit here lost, envying your extensive

family trees and native tongues

the way you look too the old country, the fact you

have a heritage to pass to your sons

While I'm drowning in your identity and

your way of life

my whole perception of living is governed by

well planned lies

But I won't continue to let myself grope

at noon day

because Yahweh has taken the glare from my

eyes and shown me the way

Now I can grow and the seed of my tree

will be Abraham

and the branches on that tree will be the

12 Lost Tribes of Israel

And though some branches were broken

they will grow again

mentally freed slaves will populate those branches

and my name will be among them

And if I allow Yahweh's divine wisdom to

work through me

then I will see the new beginning and then I will

truly be free

Pimped by the kkk

Chitterlings, hog mogs, fat back

Still eating like a slave

Backaches, high-blood pressure

Early trips to the

Grave

Drug dealing, guns, drive bys',

And sex for sel

Hustling, neglecting babies, disrespecting

Females

Pimps, gold diggers, B's and

Hoes

Anything to take care of your family

To bad you're selling out there

Souls

Your hair is so nappy and you

so black Jokes

Hating on light skins saying

Their wannabe white

Folks

Relaxers, hot combs and

Silky straight Weaves

Staying out of the sun, steady using

bleaching Cream

Cause you can't afford to be any darker

Then you Are

Self-hate is your disease

And your color is your scar

Climbing the corporate ladder while pushing your

Brother down in the Process

Spreading the legs, making the babies

And leaving the mother to collect the welfare

Checks

Thinking slavery ended just because

abe lincoln said it did

not realizing that the mind games

played on us during slavery governs the

way we now live

Now I could go on and on with all the

Things that go down in our Lives

But will it be enough to make you stop, listen and open

up your Eyes

And realize if any of these examples are a description

Of your ways

Then brother and sisters know that you have been officially

pimped by the Kkk

SLAVE

How happy was I that I found love in such

A evil time

And it lay within a man who was silently strong

And fine

Love left our wedding day to be remembered

Though we didn't have much

We became our own masters that day through

Gods loving touch

I couldn't imagine this day my happiness

Would end

That fateful night my husbands silent strength

Had the voice of a million men

Which caused him not to come to me on

Our wedding night

It was master who showed his face instead

And took MY husbands life

Now I slave away with this evil growing

Inside of me

9 months later it shows its face pale as

Can be

This light skinned baby has taken my love

From me

And I am torn because this forced creation

Is a part of me

I love her , I hate her please take away

This pain

It is not right for a mother to feel this

Way

My master, My master he is the one to

Blame

He raped my soul and tortured my body

Now he's taking my baby away

How could he? I 'll tell you why, his profit will

Be nice

As master say "a nigger baby with a drop of

White blood will sell for a high price"

Oh I guess I should be happy, she'd be a

house Nigger

Continually raped by her master and her babies

Sold to the highest bidder

In the world of slavery love is a curse that pays

A high price

First a husband, then a baby and finally this

womans life

You make me feel like a natural woman

You make me feel like a natural woman

I get excited every time that I'm around you

You make me feel like a natural woman

Formed with the dust completed by the rib inside you

You make me FEEL

When I wake up in the morning you look at me

Like I'm the most beautiful woman you've ever seen

You look at me like I'm a rare delicacy that you just have to taste

I look in to your eyes and see into your mind

all the things you want to do to me

So many adj. and verbs that Webster's dictionary couldn't contain it

MAN! I can't explain it

Your love is so passionate and yet so pure

You disinfect my soul with every touch

Fueled by marital bliss and intellectual stimulation

I know this is more than lust

Your natural feel, sex appeal

Blends deep down into my bones

Your love sticks to my ribs

Keeps me from getting chills

And bonds our kindred souls

And you know that I'm digging

Every little thing you

Do

From the way you make your Kool-Aid taste like now n laters

To the way you love me through and

Through

Being with you makes me feel the

True purpose of making

Love

Meant for man and wife, to enjoy and create

Life

Ordained by the one above

You make me feel like

the Israelite princess that

I am

Strong enough to stand on my own two feet

But woman enough to submit to

My man

Because I know that he completed me

By way of you

With Yahweh as our tie, together you and I

There's nothing we can't do

You make me feel so beautiful

You make me feel know other woman could compare

You make me feel so H20

Undeniably, Indefinably, natural
