God but no Goddess?
Current mood: accomplished
Category: Writing and Poetry

God but no Goddess?



Lying in bed this morning feeling the ultimate stress
thinking about a religion that has a God but no mention of a Goddess
All this ’He’, ’Him’, ’Father’, alpha male bullshit
but you should know that in some bibles the Creator is described as IT
If there are male and female aspects in the creation
why shouldn’t this also be the case with the Creator?
A God but no Goddess?
A father but no mother?
Physical parents yes?
Spiritual parents no?
What is wrong with the picture?
I believe my spiritual Mother is real but kept in the background
I reckon God gagged her so we wouldn’t know that she was around
I read the whole bible
It seems each separate book had a war
and I’ve never heard of a woman starting a war before!
Male without female?
Day without night?
Well, you should know that the Creator that I acknowledge
is a spiritual hermaphrodite
We all have an urge to merge with our opposite
so I’ve got no time for this religious bullshit
Two becoming one
What a beautiful sight
You can’t have the day without the coming of the night
I hear all this talk about girl power
What about Goddess power?
Shame on every woman that accepted the idea of a spiritual Father only
God but no Goddess?
We have soulmates but the Creator doesn’t?
Women of the world
Empower yourselves
and rewrite the Bible for yourselves

’I am Mary, the daughter of Goddess
None may come to the Mother except through me’

Christianity
Stop the insanity!
It ain’t nothing but a yin/yang
In the East they know that yin is in the yang
and yang is in the yin
so try and tell me that what I speak of is an unpardonable sin
The yang is in the yin
The yin is in the yang
God and Goddess had an orgasm and we called it the Big Bang
.....and the cosmos sang


I will leave you with this
A bumper sticker I read once
’God is coming and she is pissed.’

When?
Current mood: accomplished
Category: Writing and Poetry

When was the last time your hand was kissed

When was the last time that a man lovingly stroked your wrist?

When was the last time you had a kiss that blew you away?

When was the last time you felt

a man actually cared about what you had to say?

When was the last time a man looked lovingly

and lovingly deeply into your eyes?

When was the last time that a man made you feel like a gift wrapped prize?

When was the last time that a man stroked your whole body

ever so lightly with the Butterfly Touch?

When was the last time you thought the erotic sensations were too much?

When was the last time a man made you feel like it was the very first date?

When was the last time a man said something to which you could relate?

When was the last time a man listened without interruption

to everything that you had to say?

When was the last time a man made you feel that you were more

than just a roll in the hay?

When was the last time that you shared long hot showers?

When was the last time he spontaneously plucked for you some flowers?

When was the last time that you talked with a man for hours?

When?

Anorexia isn't sexier
Current mood: aggravated
Category: Blogging

Anorexia isn't sexier

 
Anorexia isn't sexier
You ain't no hero
'cos you fit in a size zero
The 'thin is in' mentality gets me pissed
If you wear a size zero it means that you don't exist
Skinny girls look at voluptuous women and start to act bitchy
Well, I know that they look a whole lot better than that skinny thing Nicole Ritchie
I'm preaching the gospel of Sir Mix-a-Lot on microphones
Females with back look a whole lot better than skin and bones
If a skinny woman is what a man enjoys
I'll have to point out that you can't distinguish the anorexic from boys
Kim Basinger passed as a man in '9 and a half Weeks'
and so did Julie Andrews in 'Victor/Victoria
and it's a whole lot easier when you suffer from anorexia
If Twiggy like bodies leave you impressed
I'm the one that'll point out that they have little or no chest

I've got issues
Current mood: confused
Category: Writing and Poetry

I've got issues

 
 
 
Darkness cloaks you
My rhyme skill chokes you
Your flow is tragic
I'll dazzle you like Magic Johnson
Step to me, I'll let you know that it's on son
I gave a phantasm
an orgasm
and made its muscles spasm
I push you to the brink
Now look deep into the chasm
I'll reduce your flow to a hoarse whisper
'cos mine's is tighter and crisper
I made a gesture to the jester and flipped him the bird
Left him in awe with lockjaw
He couldn't believe what he heard
All teeth and claws, he tried to tear me apart
so I punctured his flow with a verbal dart
Bullseye
Now you die
Your courage is withering
In shock you head back to the rock you came from
slinking and slithering
I'm not the devil you want to dare
I'll fill you full of despair
Taking emcees out in multiples
I've got rhymes to spare
I bust flows so sweet I had to preserve them on paper
You spit your flow I make it disappear like vapor
Vaporizing
'cos my flows so appetizing
I try hard not to let the beast inside me dominate
but it comes to the fore when fake emcees player hate
The Wordsmith is my dark side
Knowledge is more gentle
The Wordsmith is all about invading your mental
He doesn't give a damn about haiku
All he wants to do is psyche you
Try to invade his space and I'm pretty sure he won't like you
When I relinquish control
he claims my soul
I share all the memories of the battles he fought
I stare at the bodies of dead emcees and all the carnage he wrought
The Wordsmith is my creation
but I can't control the transfromation
It's getting harder and harder to hold him back
He lives for the attack
and snuffing emcees that are wac
Fake emcees
He brought them to their knees
His face showed no compassion and no response to their pleas
I never ever tire
My lyrics forged in fire
I'm remarkable
and marketable
Pitch your flows, I'm batting them
Guaranteed to go platinum
Two decades back I first sensed my word shaping ability
and felt its stirring
Spontaneous breaking into rhyme would keep occurring
"Theidentityoftheentitytothisdayit'sstillunknowntome"
Just like that, I never know exactly what I'm going to blurt out
Just a little something I do to give myself a verbal workout
The Wordsmith birthed from a cocoon that cracked apart
fusing with Knowledge to share the same heart

Old School Glory
Current mood: cheerful
Category: Blogging

                                     Old School Glory

 
 
 
Old school rap I'm restoring
because gangster rap is boring
Their flows I'm just ignoring
Can't see how they got to touring
Put me to sleep and got me snoring
What manner of black sorcery has us under their spell?
What magicks did they employ that caused their records to sell?
What demons did they pray to from the depths of hell?
The Wordsmith in this incarnation for their foul language I must dispel
The mike's about to get heated
Expletives will be deleted
Gangster rapper's act too conceited
so they must be defeated
Gangster rapper's want to physically beat me
because they know that they can't lyrically defeat me
They look at my hair and say I'm fronting like Cisco
but when they hear my flow they sweat harder
than John Travolta at a disco
My flow is so full of life it's pregnant
while theirs is just stagnant
stagnant and repugnant
The lamest thing in rap
is when people want to talk crap
about the clothes that you're wearing
when it should be about the flow that you're sharing
With the Wizard of Words I sat at length
My training almost over, he gauged my verbal strength
Dusty books surrounded us full of battle rhymes he employed
enabling him to cast fake emcees into the void
Trapped there forever, their minds a blank slate
for daring to imitate and duplicate
Spells guarded the books fake emcees tried to steal
daring to touch them would cause their blood to congeal
I walked outside and viewed the stars
A beat ran through my head so I hummed a few bars
I saw an ugly duckling chuckling which got my knees buckling
Then I saw a young woman with her breast exposed and her baby suckling
A breeze set me at ease as I thought of emcees
that would bite what I write,  the plagiarism disease
MC's gathered in a cypher around a distant campfire
Those who sat away from the center of the flame
with their heads down were the ones I'd made retire
I walked over to the fire where the logs lay a burning
I bust out a flow which got their heads turning
Those in back I revealed to be wack looked up in fright
and ran away into the night because my flow is so tight
Confrontation gets me stimulated
I verbalize you and leave you mutilated
The battle long and hard, so much devastation
Fake emcees bowed before me in supplication
The crowd congregated
to see wordplay demonstrated
Rotten fruit was thrown
at those who messed up on the microphone
Hands exchanging money, the crowd placed their bets
I ripped into my opponent like I had a case of Tourette's
A wise man will never reveal all that he knows
That's why I always keep something back when I'm spitting my flows

The Exorcist
Current mood: determined
Category: Writing and Poetry

                              The Exorcist

 
 
Hear the babble of the rabble
they don't realize that I dabble
in words more complex than you'll find in a game of Scrabble
Years of experience in dealling with the possessed
Words no mortal eye should see that appear upon their chest
The complex pronunciation of a secret incantation
I drive the demon out with my flow, my verbalization
foaming at the mouth realizing that my rhyme is greater
I dispel the hound of hell by tuning into the Creator
Man, it's such a bummer
when they start up with "your mama!"
I let the demon know exactly who is dumber
and when I hear it hiss I tell it 'Cease and desist!
'Cos I'm the Exorcist
and you don't wanna get me pissed"
 
The epileptic fit, the shuddering, the shaking
Is it faking? No mistaking that I'll have to drive the stake in
They speak in multiple tongues that no mortal man should hear
but I make them disappear with the rhymes that reach their ear
They sell their soul for the rap
that'll put them on the map
but the fame will never last
'cos they have a troubled past
The rhyme will go from strong to weak
'cos it's the darkness that they seek
The darkness that persists
It's the darkness I resist
'cos I'm the Exorcist and you don't wanna get me pissed
 
Gangbanging, rockslanging
They ask me how's it hanging
The gory story of an OG
wreaking havoc with his Uzi
The hustling, the drug deal, the keeping it real
The achiever has a fever, now this soul I must heal
Pride before a fall, the booty call, now he's having a ball
Girls with back, most of them slack but now he's walking tall
So we have our confrontation, throwdown, a showdown
I give him the lowdown on who's the best around
and when I hear him hiss I tell him cease and desist
'cos I'm the Exorcist and you don't wanna get me pissed
 
Freestyling, wilding, stream of consciousness
They float on what they wrote, am I up to this?
To bring the demon to the ground
and make him stop the moaning sound
Now there's a chill in the air
and I start to feel fear
as it makes sounds like a synthesizer
but that's just the appetizer
for what's about to come next
now it's got me vexed
So I rhyme to the beat that the demon provides
as I see the bed shaking from side to side
I keep the flow going
now the movement is slowing
No more to and fro'ing
I rest up, I'm messed up, I take him off of my list
The final resistance is the shaking of the fist
but I'm the Exorcist and you don't wanna get me pissed

Wordplay
Current mood: amused
Category: Writing and Poetry

                                          Wordplay

 
 
Base jumpers perform some crazy stunts
Jumping off of Christ statues
I don't do tattoos
That shit is permanent
'Permanent'
Great. Now I have a word to rhyme with 'firmament'
Man, I've seen some crazy shit in my life
I saw this manic mechanic acting messianic
He swore in a former life he went down with the Titanic
The freestyling singer met the blingblinger
He said, "Do you know that you're a dead ringer for Mr. T?
All that shit around your neck looks heavy"
Wordplay like foreplay
Verbal fencing like swordplay
Don't be humble, you're a slammer
You know that you're a bad mamma jamma
Hey, don't get mad!
I'm just trying to penetrate the prism of your cynicism
Your word's flow on the page like semen. verbal jism
Now I've got something I need to settle with Hansel and Gretel
Why do you have a problem with me playing heavy metal?
METALLICA! METALLICA! ATTICA! ATTICA!
The moon is waning, my energy's draining
Why am I complaining?
'Because I  need it to be full
so I can feel its pull
and howl like a loon at the moon
Did you know that we're in a cartoon?
A three-dimensional molecular painting
It's too much for her mind, now you've got her fainting
Deep concepts and precepts
Pump my mental triceps
I got a synapse
to do forty laps
I'm in a story I wrote
I need to hit that musical note
Doh-ray-me-fah-so-lah
Tea for two and two for tea
I love to wax a fake emcee
Wax on, wax off
Did you just cough?
Gobbling up my rhymes like pigs at a trough
I'm the created and the Creator
The masturbated and masturbator
Cosmic sperm, ejaculating stars
fascinating cars driven by Pras
and all the other ghetto superstars
I'm on a space shuttle and it's headed for Mars
Decided to drive it and smashed it and got put behind bars
I don't do well in a cell
Feeel I'm living in hell
'That old black magic's got me in its spell'
Am I the weakest link because of my inability to think?
Would a skunk still stink if I took it to the skating rink?
Or would it keep its smell on hold?
Doesn't matter anyway 'cos I came down with a cold
'Don't push me 'cos I'm close to the edge'
I'm about to jump off this ledge
Nothing that you say will make me go back in
There's too many things that my soul is lacking
I've seen 'Vanilla Sky' so I don't mind being up this high
so I'm just gonna sit on this ledge and cry
But you're never gonna survive unless you get a little crazy
I had my goals clearly mapped out but they got a little hazy
Wordplay like foreplay, verbal fencing like swordplay

Welcome to Reality
Current mood: annoyed
Category: News and Politics

 
Anarchy and misery
A ghoulish reality
A devastation of humanity
Of poor people almost exclusively
Human suffering unparalled in American history
Citizen's lives made barren and impotent by a catastrophe
Real human emotions acted out for the world to see
It would never have happened
if Bush hadn't taken away the $70 million needed to fortify the levee
The people of New Orleans becoming refugees from their own city
floodwaters unsafe because of their toxicity
Left without worldly possessions, searching for lost family
Haliburton Inc. got the cleanup contracts, exploiters of poverty
A nation thinking itself invulnerable
to Earth and its forces woken from that fantasy
Hurricane Katrina gave us a harsh dose of reality
Slapped in our faces by the storm, forced to confront our vulnerability
Survival of the richest, escaping if you had money
the American Dream, capitalist fiction, turned out to be a fallacy
Exposing the charade of separate but equal
vanished racism and social equality
The hurricane provided proof that black and white America
are divided socioeconomically
Just as it was before the formation of the Republic
when black slaves were considered animals
and one's skin color determined freedom or misery
Conscious and subconscious racism still lingers
with emanicpation did not come equality
Blacks creeping out of cesspools of slavery
into a world they only saw through the periphery
A culture, white and homogenous placed monolithic barriers to entry
This can be said with certainty
the slave labor of blacks made America wealthy
Blood, sweat and tears enriching America's past and present oligarchy
America's wealth accumulated over centuries of slavery
Generations of blacks have suffered
from a playing field that has no semblance of equality
Dependent on the crumbs and bones thrown their way by an Anglo society
For one hundred years after winning their freedom
blacks remained a servile entity
Confronting societal racism and government indifference
the black community never really escaped slavery
Slave wages, slave income, slave like conditions
with no foreseeable opportunity
Jobs whites no longer wanted were given to blacks
the lowest end of the totem pole called American society
White America pretended the ghetto did not exist
even as millions lived in squalor with no foreseeable opportunity
Making impotent education from pre-school through high school
by introducing firewater, drugs and weapons into the inner city
Relegated to the slums and ghetto, forced to live in poverty
Wanting to move ahead and escape the internment camp
the leite had shoved them into but lacking the education necessary
Without education there is pure ignorance and lack of knowledge
Without liveable wages there is only slavery
Living paycheck to paycheck, indebted more and more each day
thousands of blacks are forced to jon the military
Without employment and education
two million black men find themselves
in the largest prison system the world has ever seen
locked away for crimes that wer petty
The sojourn into the inner city is to take a trip into Haiti
Thos such as George Bush, born with silver spoons and gold-plated toilets
would be unlikely to show any sympathy
No concern for those less fortunate than themselves
hypnotized by the Dollar Almighty
Guitar lessons in San Diego, rounds of golf in California
ignoring the New Orleans calamity
Failing to attend to the worst natural disaster in America's history
showed us that Bush is nothing more than a corporate owned lackey
More concern was given Bush's failed war in Iraq than an American city
The administration knew full well the dangers of a major hurricane
hitting New Orleans but didn't help to secure the city's safety
So they ended up swimming in toxic cocktails of waste and water
dehydrating for lack of water and hungry
Forced to endure chaos and anarchy
This has been a message from England's first rapper
documented Black Echoes magazine 1980
The hurricane revealed that Bush has a frozen in the 60's mind set
Welcome to reality

'He's a nigga! He's a nigga!'
Current mood: disappointed
Category: News and Politics

excerpt from 'Our heart of darkness' City Life Nov. 30th 2006

 

  Michael Richards unleashed a rapid fire barrage of the N-word at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood, with no attempt at humor, to remind us that America is, indeed, historically a nation of N-word addicts. And as such, we are a nation in denial. Malcolm X once pointed out, you cannot tell who all the bigots are simply by the words they do not use.

  The N-word has been in this country from...1619, a year before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock.[A] black man was labeled a "negar", by John Rolfe, an early English settler and tobacco exporter.Soon thereafter, America began building itself on a foundation of guns, tobacco and slavery.Slavery became the machinery that produced tobacco.Tobacco was the first export to generate money for white settlers - to buy guns.And those guns were used, first, to keep "niggers" in their place...Arguably, without slaves there would be no United States, but rather a large block of land divided into smaller countries, like Europe.In short, those early black Americans, upon whose backs our first economy was created, were the real founding fathers (and mothers) of this country. And what was their reward? They were given an epithet: nigger. And little else.

 It remains with us still, fortunately not as public or accepted as it once was. Comedian Richards recent gaffe reminded us of that....the median income for white households was $50,622 last year; for black households $30,939.Seventy-five percent of white households owned their homes; 46% of black households owned theirs.8% of white households lived in poverty versus 25% of black households.....our problem is not just one misguided actor/comedian in Hollywood.If the war in Iraq is any barometer - where America has established a beachhead to kill all the sandniggers in the world - we remain sadly a nation of racist nincompoops....For a reality check on the N-word, please read Randall Kennedy's

'Nigger: The strange career of a troublesome word'

and Citylife's Feb 6, 2003 cover story in its online archives (advanced search) type in the search word "nigger"
