girls post up pictures on social networking sites that they should be sending to their boyfriends or sexting buddies and label it “just chilling” or something innocent like that. so irritating. get a life… or some clothes.

bemorefoxxi:
People of African descent reflect a multiplicity of skin tones and phenotypic characteristics. Often times, however, when met by people who self-identify as “Black,” but do not fit into a stereotypical model of Blackness, many of us not only question their identity, but challenge their Blackness, and thus our potential relationship to them. A creative presentation of historical...

.regrets
the last time i saw you, you were happy with her.
beauty straight outta ebony, coca cola curves, and
fashion like vogue. smile straight outta a colgate ad, and
her hair was perfect. the wind blew her shirt and it
clinged to her breasts, exposing her perfect cleavage.
she had an ice cream cone in one hand and her cell
in another so you leaned forward to brush her hair
to the side. i...

i'm thinking of becoming a buddhist.
i’m a very spiritual person. i believe in transference of energy from a higher power / person. i believe in an omnipotent presence and i believe in karma. i believe in the power of prayer / meditation and the idea of centering one’s self. i think it’s important to find peace and tranquility in your soul before you search for it somewhere else.
i dunno.. this is still pending.

side note: my mom lives & works in burma because of work (she works for the UN). she’s...

.brooklyn
everybody wants to be from brooklyn.
everybody wants to be a hipster with
bed bugs and barely there pants with
lopsided hats and too large boots.
everybody wants to take the L or
the M, or the J,G, or the Z.
brooklyn is for cool people, for artists,
and for liberal freedom fighters.
brooklyn is the underground for
undiscovered people.
it’s not for your suits and ties or your

.energy
late night conversations
turned into early morning
fresh brewed coffee
pick me-ups.
five hour energy shots
for five hour
phone calls breaking dawn.
red bull for red eyes
in the morning or maybe
red eyes from crying.
monster drinks for the
monster you became
and high energy ranting,
high energy bearing-unbearing
memories
and unfulfilled tasks
on our to-do list.
