Ok, so I happened to be absent from the Open Mic session to be present for the reading of this particular poem. From reading it myself however I definitely know it was an event which I wish now that I had attended. This poem was written and performed by two lovely ladies; Deanna and Brittany. When going solo they both are pretty bad-ass with their word schemes but together they are Beastly! No more talking, I give you "Munchies".
Black woman, mi nuh see wah fi stand next to yuh.
African gem, di man dem heart haffi strong fi step to yuh.
Yuh dark brown skin rich and supple like chocolate.
Fimi heart yuh set ablaze wid yuh majestic ways.
Mi coulda speak of yuh essence fi days and it wouldn’t do yuh justice.
Yuh muss be a musket because yuh shot.
Black woman, yuh hotta dan a African Serengeti.
Sprouting My Wings
All this time was I just dreaming
Was our happiness just another of my freaking illusions?
All that time which we spent together all those smiles we shared
Was it a lie?
Hello one and all, Yes I havent posted anything for awhile. Dont blame me, blame my mind for not coming up with anything interesting or not being able to complete the drafts I have. Anyway, moving on. Today I have another poem for you all from the lovely Deanna

Who know Joe Grine??? If you don't know Joe then that's about to change. This poem is all about Mr. Joe Grine and is written by
Britton Wright. It is patois rich and filled with humour but at the same time is a serious thing to think about. So here's Joe.
Hello Ladies & Gents, boys & girls, welcome to another Relationship instalment. All this coming from the guy who cant seem to hold on to one so you KNOW its the good stuff :D. So anyway if we go by the topic above (and we always do), today we will be taking a look at Clingy Girlfriends/Boyfriends.
The universe is a system much like the human body or any living creature or organism. Meaning everything has a cellular level... Get It???? So stick with my thoughts for a minute this is gonna be very short. Now as I said the universe is in its simplest definition a large system. It is [or at least should be] common knowledge, that every system has its various small parts that makes it run. If we take the human body again as an example we start off with the skin and work our way down to blood cells, anti-bodies etc. So it is with the universe. Now if that is the case then what if we are simply the blood cells which make up the universe?
