“Remember that feeling when you were a child dancing and why you loved to dance. As long as you remember that feeling, we'll be all right.” -Robert Battle

mics + moves.

last night found me at java monkey, a nicey lil coffee shop in decatur that hosts a free open mic every sunday. it was a spur of the moment kinda of thing to go, but im glad my brothas + me went. i havent been there in ages but I always digg the atmosphere, very laid back, a nicey space 4 a mental free-for-all by lyrical means. being in the mist of all these poets + listening to their stories (ranging from simple "I can't live w/o ya" to "your pregnant stomach scares me " to "I dont wanna be your *bleep*-in friend".) made me wanna get back to writing even more. goodness knows I still have a few unsaid words... we will see sooner than later.

oh, + just to say: if you never had a freestyle rap + dance session up + down the street at night, you havent lived. gotta love my crazy beautiful brothas.

words to carry. 1

"So often we build castles with moats and demand that others earn the right to enter; "Pursue me, Convince me, Deserve me", turning love into a trial, because we don't believe that loving us should or even could be, easy. Relax, get out of your own way and admit that loving you is the most natural thing in the world, and let the ones that love you... simply Love you." Rikki Beadle-Blair

all that i can say... doo do doo do doo do doo.

its raining + somehow i have found my way back over here. well credit due, my sis chris have led a brotha back in, but im not saying anything just yet. but since im here, i might as well say heylo.

it surely has been a good minute since i let anything off my mind on here, a thing that i figured would happen cuz i always end up taking "long term vacays" from blogging. so much has happened, much as changed. maybe with that alone could give me reason to come back again. but if you know a brotha by now, its not a promise. lolol either way, I jus wanted to say heylo, + God bless ya.
