Starting the conversation 

Beauty

Poem: Cover girl
Work
Cover girl work it girl, cover girl, do your thang on the runway...
Channel your inner Beyoncé, they say
Too big to be little, too little to be big
Too nappy to be natural, too Afrocentric for a wig
Too light to be dark, too dark to be light
They say modeling ain’t for the weak
&
they got that shit right
Titties up, stomach in, chin down
Melanin fetishized, are you the right brown?
Are you the right size? Don’t smile just smize
Own it, own this, gone sis
Elongate...
Make shapes...your body is a stencil
Creation on paper, use your body as the pencil
Stand out so you’re not forgotten
No jokes in this biz about consuming cotton...if that’s what it takes
Do I have what it takes? Will the audience be able to relate—-
to me?
Am I pretty?
Get out your head. Titties up, stomach in, shoulders back
Don’t think to much girl, relax
You den gone and got it, now run w/it
Eff what they think, have fun w/it
They sky is the limit, you’re a star
Your future’s out of range, you’re going so far
Slight head tilt, pierce your lips, Point ya feet
Workout, practice hard, watch for what ya eat
Suck it in, breathe, attend your model lessons
Don’t think to hard, relax, multiple face expressions
Titties up, stomach in, Lotion up, motion up, don’t blink in yo mink don’t mess the photo up
Suck it in, breathe subtle, don’t let them see you sweat, stand out, no doubts, step on everybody neck
Study fashion, study models, study photos, study trends
Then it’s bright, click, flash, on my side of the lens
Go for it, you got it, no overthinking no debating
Now it’s Action, satisfaction from content I’m creating
Creating creations I’m a creator creating my shit right, right handed, understand that I need my shit tight
Praying for my time, my opportunity to come every night
But in the meantime I’m over here Talking to myself in my head like
Work
Cover girl work it girl, cover girl do your thang on the runway...
Channel your inner Beyoncé, they say, word on the street
I encourage you to stay encouraged, modeling ain’t for the weak
Extra rolls please

It’s a shame, y’all body shame the women who started the body positivity movement, the idea that there’s only one ideal body shape is real shallow & stupid; but he like butter with these rolls, & extra meat on these thighs, how y’all gone body shame women and get mad they ain’t shy

Shy with their own bodies, I must’ve misunderstood; u mad they don’t dress how you think they should?
I say express yourself, do as you please, just like a restaurant we want more rolls please

Those stretch marks are fye, like a built in design, think of ya body as a canvas, Picasso painted you fine
& it cuts both ways, they body shame super skinny girls too, binge eating & anorexic jokes ain’t funny or cute
You can work out and keep it tight or Celebrate yo cellulite
The main thing about mama arms is you know that food hit right

I am a family meal combo breast, legs and extra thighs...
I invite you to love on your body no matter your shape or size
I love my pooch, I love my gut, I like the jiggle in my butt
& as my clothes cover my rolls I’m feeling royal like king tut

I’ll emphasize these curves of mine, emphasize them with ease, like I’m in a restaurant yelling out, I’m like more rolls please

I love the lizzo’s of the world, chikas & Danielle brooks, The epitome of how confidently beautiful should look

Cause to be a darker black, labeled fat, & with no plastic ass, is the hardest thing to be besides a black man in drag

They made you see it through their eyes, the right size...& it wasn’t plus. Cardi & Lizzo wear the same thing, but when it’s Lizzo y’all fuss

Smile, embrace those cheeks they call chubby as you attract their hubby...women fat shame more than men....the saddest part about it is they’re re just a baby away from it being them

& that’s one of the many reasons that It’s a shame, y’all body shame the women who started the body positivity movement, the idea that there’s only one ideal shape is real stupid; but he like butter with these rolls, & extra meat on these thighs, if you’re a body shamer, that’s a shame, so Felicia goodbye

I say express yourself fully, do as you please, just like a restaurant, I’m yelling out, “more rolls please”

Healthcare

Poem: Listen Linda
 Watch here 

I am sick, I'm down and out, feels like i'm dissolving away
Phd, but its fictional, I'm meredith grey
I'm on 20 different meds and I still can barely breathe
So why do I know all these terms with no medical degree

It's way too many medications, I'm gone have some withdrawls
The day i finally run out of my Methocarbamol
They see a black woman, they assume that I'm strong
But these drugs stronger than me, so pass my Oxycodone
Hydrocodone has me higher than a hippie in heaven
I'm losing track of time, thought it was 2 , but it's 7
nightlife with naproxen, nip the nasty in the nose
a princess fell down, and look a drug addict rose

Ondanserton, yea I know I probably butchered the name
shouldn't even know all these terms, that's what I'm saying, it's a shame
I guess i'll include the Ibuprofen, they gave me the strongest dose
take it with my Prednisone, don't recognize me, I'm gross

my weight, my color, my cuts, my sex, shouldn't invalidate my pain or make you see me as less, listen linda

the medicines combined may do more harm than the pain
when you drawer full of drugs and you hurt its hard to refrain
excuse my improper word usage, but shawty know this ain't grammarly
you asked me questions and I gave you the history of my family

did you listen, when I mentioned, addiction runs through our accessions
addiction was the description, go recheck on the transcription
did you listen when I mentioned addiction can cause some friction
my brain faces eviction when the drugs move-in
you ain't listen when I first mentioned, guess i aint use enough conviction, cause nobody who had listened would prescribe all this prescriptions
now I'm holding interventions to prevent my own addictions 
from all the damn drugs you've prescribed me
almost as if you were looking to bribe me
cause initially you denied me
ain't believe me
the real story and your first impression caused confusion
you decided what the story was although it was an illusion
every patient is not lying to you
I can see how it happens, but it won't be me
drop your assumptions in the future, sometimes listening is key

I am sick, I'm down and out, feels like i'm floating away
doctor's degree, but its fictional, so I'm meredith grey
I'm on 20 different meds, the doctors gave them to me
I shouldn't know all these terms with no medical degree
Poem: But they still billed my insurance
Listen here

I’m laughing but serious. It’s ridiculous not funny. I’m telling you I’m sick and you just worried about the money, this one is for certain doctors, we’re calling you to the stage. As Charlemagne would say you’re my donkey of the day

This isn’t for all doctors, for the trolls and the lurkers. I appreciate the good ones and all essential workers; some do a hell of a job so we don’t have to bear it, but if the shoe fits, then lace it up and wear it

I’m really fed up so im venting to whoever listens, young girls are disappearing and it’s a lot  of us missing, the fact is not priority makes me extremely mad, cause they wasting time on tickets for expired temp tags

But that’s enough about the blue, cause this ones about the slippery slope we may face in the hands of white coats

We need to be a priority like the majority, we are people as well, we need your help sometimes even tho we fend for ourselves
When we don’t have medical degrees, it’s you we come to see, cause we know that web md ain’t always reliable...but lately neither are you

Listen to my symptoms I want a real diagnosis, go do your homework on rarities like endometriosis
Look at me and see your daughter, look at me and see your wife, look at me and see your mom and actually try to save my life

It’s like I’m speaking Spanish, you speaking French and the nurse speaking Russian, take my symptoms seriously even when blood is not gushin

And I know y’all running crazy, so I can cut y’all some slack, but y’all saying people died from covid when they died of heart attacks...y’all really good with that?
To stay relevant in the media? To procure funds? And yes right now I’m reading ya and I’ve only just begun
...cause we’re dying when we don’t have to....getting sicker, I’m appalled; drowned in hospital bills and debt for problem that could’ve been resolved

Listen to us. Hear us. Treat us. Aim to do so the first time you meet us...
Healthcare should be free, it is in other countries, all this technology then why do we have all this bodies ?

Because it’s corrupt, here we have another system, that has integrated all of the different kind of isms... it’s invalid if you’re too young, it’s invalid if you’re too old, it’s invalid if you’re anyone outside the little mold, it’s invalid if you cut, it’s invalid if you’re gay, it’s invalid when they say trust science and you chose to pray; it’s not okay
We’re losing faith so reassure us, they didn’t solve my problems but they still billed my insurance
So I’m laughing but serious. It’s ridiculous not funny. I’m telling you I’m sick and you just worried about the money, this one is for certain doctors, we’re calling you to the stage. Seeing you you dismiss us to death brings me great sorrow, before we loose faith in healthcare do better tomorrow

Illness Awareness

Poem: Mom, do you know who I am

They erased the dry erase board, the board was my brain
Tried to rewrite the words, but it never matched the same; all the life and my memories I thought I’d ingrained, disappeared before my eyes; am I going insane

Can’t remember my thoughts, can’t remember my kids, I know I lived a life, but can’t remember what I did
Pain is real scary, sometimes pain’s even blind; but nothing is scarier than losing your mind
Mind your manners, I’m hammered, feels like I’m 18, sleeping’s no fun when life is a bad dream
Dream walker, I’m walking, reach for mama to help me, but mama was daughter and that mix up, it scared me
Scary dreams, scary life, put my key in the car, but my car was the toaster no wonder it didn’t start
Starting over and ending, simultaneous motions, the memory spell is the scariest potion
If you’re losing your mind, know that we all stand witcha, praying daily the come up with a cure for dementia

They erased the dry erase board, the board was my brain
Tried to rewrite the words, but it never matched the same; all the life and my memories I thought I’d ingrained, disappeared before my eyes; am I going insane

Love

Poem: Houdini
​Watch here

My love is too much for some, so I invite you to find less
My love is too pure for some, I wana feel at home and not be stressed
My love is passionate as hell, reciprocate or you can’t have it
Forget cupid, I’m Houdini, cause my love is just like magic

Let me kindly let you know, there are no upgrades after me
From the first day that we meet, I’ll upgrade ya, drastically
Genuine love
Heartfelt hugs, home to happy, here to stay
I’ll go above
Prioritize your priceless pieces, pave a way

A brighter future, full of wins, filled w/love and lit w/ sparks
Full of ups, but even down, we still find light in the dark
I’ll hold ya heart, keep it nice, prize possession, my favorite treasure
Fight for you against whoever, whatever I’m down for any measure

No matter distance, space or time, just know I’ll be right be your side, siding with you in good and bad in right and wrong, I’m still gone slide. Sliding home, we’ve ran the bases, it’s a home run, we like what’s next..staying down choosin each other always, we’ll always pass the test

My love is too much for some, so I invite you to find less
My love is too pure for some, I’ll still be there for your worst & best
My love is passionate as hell, court me right & you can have it
Forget cupid, I’m Houdini, know my love is better like magic
Poem: She ain't sorry either
Watch here
I have absolutely no control over my own heart
Cause she gone do what she want, from the start, off the charts, dosed up on Cupid’s arrows and darts
Super unapologetic
My brain don’t stand a chance
It’s sorta kinda pathetic
Prophetic, I still believe fate
She only knows love, there’s no room for hate
My heart is headstrong, we tussle everyday
Heart beefing w/my mind, determined to get her way
She believes all love can be rekindled
She shatters then reassembles
She is wolverine, an x man, created from chemical x, if she’s a powderpuff girl, she’s all three she’s the best
Withstanding storms, deaths, disappointment, heartache
She’s mighty resilient, brilliant, she’ll always take the cake
Heartbreaks spearheaded by my own heart that’s right
Sometimes I hate my heart, feel like she ruins my life
Too loving too vulnerable I’m such an empath
I’ll not have shit and give you everything I have
To family, to friends, to lovers, she strangers
My heart too oblivious, don’t know when she’s in danger
But she’s dangerous herself, because she know her owner’s fine.
Mixed emotions, mix me up, hope I don’t blur the lines
My heart wins every battle, she’s too strong and she knows it
But I’m hopeful one day, I will learn to control it
I have absolutely no control over my own heart
Cause she gone do what she want, from the start, off the charts, dosed up on Cupid’s arrows and darts
Super unapologetic
My heart and brain feud
It’s sorta kinda pathetic
My heart beats for you, can’t resist and it she knows it
But I’m hopeful one day I will learn how to control it…
