*NIGERIAN PLATINUM*
MY FIRST VALENTINE POEM: 2009
On Feb 13Th, my Honey Bunny, told me that we were going away for 3days for valentines day!, talk about shock, he planned everything, from the hotel to the location, to the restaurant to... to...everything!!, needless to say i was SO shocked and super siked!!. he told me that he wanted to take me away just so i wouldn't have to worry or think about anything!!!, that i should just leave it to him...
i must say that was the best and most special valentine that i have ever had or experienced in my life, but you know what? any and everywhere is always fun and special with him!!
i won't go into detail, but **one** of my most favorite moments of that weekend is when he read me a poem he wrote about me...called
NIGERIAN*PLATINUM!
i couldn't talk and he was so nervous reading it to me, he type it on a beautiful heart shaped background in a reddish Manila folder
talk about straight coco-blushing!!
here is the poem that he wrote for me..ENJOY!
Nigerian
Platinum
Every day that I
see it is another day it amazes me
Every time it
catches my eyes it’s a beautiful thing 2 see
It takes me 2 a
place that I don’t think I can leave
I’m in love with
your skin, its beauty I can’t believe
Your beautiful
dark complexion calls 4 my attention
And I’m answering
every chance I get whenever I’m in its presence
The essence of
black beauty is on my mind when I’m thinking of it
The smooth
chocolate tone is exactly what makes me love it
The way the sun
grazes it is simply amazing
Reflecting in the
perfection of one of Gods greatest creations
Even in the
moonlight its beauty is still in sight
I even love how it
glows in the passenger seat when we stop at a red light at
night
Nothing compares 2 the sight of it, except 4 its
touch
And that’s the
other reason why I love it so much
The smoothest
softest skin I ever felt, unmatched by any other girl
It’s like God
wrapped you in silk b4 He brought you in this world
I’m happy 2 be one
of the chosen few that has had the privilege of holding you
It’s like my day
gets better just by being close 2 you
Simply caressing
you puts me in a better mood
It puts me at a
level of chillin that I previously never knew
When my skin in is
pressed against it I’m in heaven in an instant
And I’ll never
ever be hesitant 2 kiss it
The touch of it is
enough 2 get me fiendin 4 the taste of it
It’s simply
greatness from your face all the way down 2 your waist and
hips
From your lips 2
your cheek 2 your neck 2 your collar bone
2 my girls, 2 your
stomach 2 my joy 2 your thighs, every time my mind is on an spiritual high
The feelin of your
skin on my lips is a feelin I’ll always miss
And I hope there is never a
time they go 2 long 2 meet, will never exist
I’m in love with
your chocolate complexion, one of the most beautiful things 2
see
I’m in love with
its smooth texture, especially when it’s touchin me
I’m in love with
its flavor, and I’ll say that 4 my mouth 2
I’m in love with
your skin, and that’s just one of the the things I love about
you

MY STORY
Right now i am feeling a certain type of way, not sure i like it but its how i feel. Why do people who hurt you or have wronged you want you to get over it so easily and quickly & not talk about it, when they themselves can not do the same.
Today I met a new friend who was going through something that I have been through and in most ways still going through..
I reached out to her to basically explain that " Hey i understand how you feel that this, that and this is what I myself have went through and am currently sill going through.
I am tired of being made the bad guy when I am not! you laid your bed with the weak ash attempts of resolving certain situations.. My story is My Story.
after all one person does not make a story.

the promise land
by narkcyin
When Israel left Egypt, they left with gold, silver, and Egypt's finest clothes. Talk about bling, man they had it all. So the Israelites set out into the desert under the leadership of Moses. After crossing thru the Red Sea on dry ground the Israelites set up camp at the foot of Mt. Sinai. It was here that the Israelites put their Egyptian booty to use; they built a golden calf. This golden calf was anointed as their god and gave them the okay to willfully indulge in every lustful activity they could imagine. What started off as fun and exciting, quickly became hell. While the Israelites were cavorting in the wilderness, Moses was up in the mountain talkin with Israel's real God. So in the middle of their 1 on 1, God tells Moses, that those people are down there actin' a fool. So Moses makes his way down from the Mountain with the two tablets w/ the 10 commandments written on them. Joshua was halfway up the mountain and when Moses reaches Joshua, he says, "There is the sound of war in the camp. "Moses replies: "It is not the sound of victory, it is the sound of defeat; it is the sound of singing that I hear."
For centuries black folks have been drawing parallels to the children of Israel and themselves. Many a negro spiritual is inspired by what God did for the children of Israel. A few things in this story stand out to me. The Israelites left Egypt with what many would extremely valuable possessions; they left Egypt with riches so to speak. In some ways it was like reparations, after 400 years of slavery they get to leave with as much of any and everything they can carry. Not long after their leaving there was sense that they didn't have enough, or what they really needed. Here it was they where out of under Egyptian oppression, with enough gold and silver to put DeBeers to shame, but it wasn't enough; they needed a god. So they had the bright idea to transform their valued possessions into their god. I don't mean to be too obvious, but this is exactly what we do today. We fashion things that we ascribe value to as our gods. And these gods give us freedom to act. In this case the Israelites' god licensed them to abandon good judgment and do whatever felt good in the moment. Unfortunately their good time undermined what God actually had for them. Most telling is what Joshua and Moses hear. Joshua hears a war, Moses hears defeat, but the only sound is singing; singing that conveys war and defeat.
Yesterday I had the privilege to catch half of a documentary called "Hip Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes". The film focused on the image of black masculinity as portrayed in hip hop music. In so many ways it was a repeat of this story for me. There's bling, there's sex, there's partying, and there's music. And regardless of the context the music doesn't highlight victory, instead it canonizes defeat. And at the end of the day the question remains, is the golden calf, the bling, and all that comes with it really worth it, or could God actually have something better for us on the other side of this desert?

The Run In....
Have you ever ran into someone that you thought you would never see ever in life again?
well i had a run in with..... The other woman.
When i was 23 i fell in love with a man.. he was everything i was not accustom to, he was white, from West Va, had a accent, he was sexy as hell & also my Supervisor!
Now at that time I was not your modern day 23 yr old, I was a very naive, green as Iceland type of 23 year old..
let me give you the back story on myself and my supervisor who we will call MEL.
Now when I first met MEL, I was interviewing for a position at Lowes and he was standing at the service desk, my first impression of him was that he was a cocky prick with beautiful mel Gibson Blue Eyes, he looked just like John Travolta in Grease but Hotter!, the reason why i called him a prick is b/c he left me standing at customer service for 30 mins when he told me he was getting the manager.. i had to remind him 3 times and finally the manager came up to the desk, he introduced me to MEL & we shook hands and i swear i felt a sharp charge & I think he felt it also bc he drop my hand abrutly then the manager then asked me right in front of him what do i think of him? i informed the manager that i thought he was unprofessional for leaving me at svc desk for 30mins... MEL looked shocked and that's the same day i found out that i would be working for him...
fast-forwarding 6 months into working with MEL
MEL's and i relationship was a love and hate one, we loved to disagree and argue about everything, from Michael Jackson, politics, racism, love,my relationship with my boyfriend, ( he thought my BF at the time was a gangster and not good for me that the only reason I was with him is b/c he looked like MJ..that's another story, he wasn't a gangster he just didn't like him ) we talk about His family, how his girl cheated on him and that they were no longer together etc. we talk about everything.. cue my attraction for him
Here's when it gets interesting
one day i ended up staying late at work b.c we had an audit, MEL and i worked from 6pm to 6am, i knew something was going on with me, my attraction for MEL was getting bad in fact it got so bad that when he would get close to me i couldn't breath, i caught my self staring at him alot, and when i would hear his voice my belly would flip, i tried to distance myself from him but nothing work, even he was changing, he was always patting me on the back, touching my arm just very physical but in a non inappropriate way.. anyhow when we stayed late there was a black out in the neighborhood and the back up generators at lowes didn't come on..
i was so scared and nervous b/c of how my body was reacting, talk about fighting the flesh i was going to war with that joint..lol!, MEL thought i was scared of the dark and grab my hand and started hugging me.. he smelled like..Irish spring soap and A Man's Man's deodorant...
then things got weird.. MeL starts stroking my skin, telling me that he has never felt anything so soft, he placed kisses all up an down the side of my face, nose and lower lip. MEL was 6.3 and 240lbs .. he was at the time 5years older and i was 20lbs lighter, ML picks me up manages to take my apron off and starts unbuttoning my shirt, he licks my skin and starts to get famliiar with greatness, my mind felt like i was high, i couldn't move, i really thought I was going to pass out, he kept repeating to me how he wanted me since the 1st day he shook my hand, how beautiful and soft i looked and felt, then he stops ,looks me in the eyes and tells me he is married, then backs up.....
I couldn't believe what i heard..i would never sleep with a married man let alone sleep with just any man , when i say i was straight battling the flesh, u just don't know, there was so many things at that time in my life that was going on, that my feelings for him was a brief escape from it all, & when he said he was married, i went from shocked to straight Hood all in a instant, i then started screaming and cursing him out, then it dawned on me that he back up and then i got a feeling that something was wrong, i looked behind me and there was his wife starring at us from outside the window of the store....
At first I didn't know who she was but from the look on his face I knew it was his wife... she started screaming and banging on the glass. There was so many thougths going through my head but I had to tackle them later, i button up my shirt trying to cover the hurt and shame on my face, my heart went out her I could imagin what she was feeling, I did just almost let her husband sample the essence that is me.
I have never been in this type of situation before, right away my inner gangsta popped into action... there is a possibilty that I might have to whoop his wife ass if she tries me...
Mel stop me from approaching the door he kept repeating that he was sorry he opened
The glass door she came in she slapped him like 4 times and glared at me... the first thing she asked me was how old am I? My reply to her was old enough to work here ... I wanted to tell here the truth that I didn't know anything about her that he never said he was married, he told me he had just gotten out of a relationship..
She ran out, he followed her and i went home, I never saw Mel again, he didn't show up for 3 weeks and when he did, it would be on days I didn't work .. I wrote his wife a long note in hopes that I would be able to give it her I ended getting his address and wifes name from the lady in HR and mailed out the letter... Mel xsfered to another store and I was offered his position. A coworker gave me a letter saying that Mel left it for me, I never read the letter I trashed hit.
Now to the present day.. I went out to lunch with my girl samantha at my job? we stop off at Cvs to get some items, as I went to the cashier to ring up my purchases the cashier kept stairing at me.. I asked her if she was okay?!? The cashier didnt answer , as she gave me my receipt She then asked me how old was I ... I asked her what for ? she then said thank you for the letter ...,and then it hit me who she was... I told her ur welcome
And I am so sorry.. Samantha looked so confused... Sheri then squeezed my Hand and said all is forgive that she knew it was not my fault ... I walk out of the store and went into the car with the weight and guilt I was carrying since that day off my heart... I gave God thanks and cried.
