Xcuse Me Sir....

Why don't women ask men out?
Is it okay to ask a man out?
Would you take him out, in a "trading places" manner?

These are a few questions that came to mind after listening to "Pusha" by Llyod and Lil Wayne, In Pusha, it's saying how the man is addicted to this woman and her love is a drug and he'd happily overdose. Stating his love for her and he'd come running if she calls, got me to thinking if I asked this particular guy out what would he say? The worst thing he can do is say no but how would he take it? A bruise to his ego? Maybe a sign he wasn't steeping up? I wasn't sure even thought it was none of those things. I simply wanted to switch it up and show how it's like to be treated for a night. So with a simple stated text I asked," Can I take yu out on your off day?" He replied," U wanna take me out babe?" Pause. Now I think it caught him seriously off guard because after i said yes he came back with "Like u wanna pay and stuff?" I couldn't help but be a little stunned he was that shocked. I simply replied," LOL like let's trade places." In true male form he said," I'm use to ALWAYS paying. I never had a girl wanna take me out." Being Rai I told him I was different and I'll take him out just let me know when his next off day is. He accepted, we'll be going out on me this Friday.

How do yu feel about these questions?

Address Me As Such.

i can see right past your intricate masks
give a sophisticated answer to any question you ask
raise 1 or 10 children through struggle and strife
run a major corporation and be a supportive wife
converse with the ‘big-wigs’ or holla atcha in the hood
say “absolutely wonderful!” or “haaay, it’s all good!”
put you in your place, without sayin’ much
i’m an intellectual black sista,
........so address me as such


possessing the strength of the strongest foundation
my voice speaks in volumes heard throughout the nation
my hands grasp doubt and turns it into hope
and these hands have cut society’s “limitation rope”
because there is no limit on the strength that i possess
the determination i have, my courage or my prowess
the force of my power can be felt with one touch
i’m a strong black sista,
........so address me as such


my heart contains love in it’s purest form
unconditional, absolute, and everyday reborn
my love can surpass the most grueling of tests
it supplies assurance where there is unrest
my love bonds, and shapes, and molds, and holds
it begins from birth, to “infinity-years-old”
you can even feel it without physical touch
i’m a loving black sista,
........so address me as such


the passion that is swelling, brewing inside
rises to my surface, it never hides
whether it’s displayed when i take a stand
or when it’s seductively unveiled for my man
it’s intensity is unrestrained, and uninhibited
and just like my strength, it is unlimited
it can be overwhelming, for some, it’s a bit much
i’m a passionate sista,
........so address me as such


intellectual, strong, loving, and passionate
sophisticated, powerful, affectionate, immaculate
i’m not your hoochie, your bitch, or your hoe
i’m the center of life, more than you’ll ever know
i’m your sister, your auntie, your niece, your mother
and i stand beside you, not behind you my brother
i come in different shapes, shades, and sizes
and no one can deny me when this sista rises
my style is captivating, thank you very much
i’m a beautiful black sista,
........so address me as such

Letter To My NanNaw.

Hey,

It's me again.

I know we don't speak often.

It's not because I don't think of you it's because I can't help but to miss you.

I know if you were here you'd be so proud of me and all that I've done.

It's because of you I strive so hard to become better than I have become.

I didn't understand 7 years ago he had to take you away from me but now it's ok cuz I know it's my heart you truly living in.

There's so much to say but these are the only lines I'll leave today until i'm ready to complete it.
