I was asked to explain what I see in this piece of art, and so here’s a brief summary of my thoughts. 

I see real love. Messy, beautiful, artistic, deep. I see mistakes, spills, mess ups that bring two together. I see a conversation over coffee leading to two minds making love. I see the birth of ideas, the birth of art, and every mistake leading to brilliance. I see a simple chat over a drink that gives energy turn into a master piece of energy and mind stimulation. 

I see two figures in love, through thick and thin, coming together in a time of hardship, and evolving into beauty. 

I see two cups of coffee spilling out, making a damn cool piece of art.

That’s some of what I see, I’m determined to find the piece and really talk about it over coffee though :)

One of the sickest pieces of art, I’ve ever seen. Let’s talk about it over coffee. ;) (Taken with instagram)

A MUST WATCH PERFORMANCE. One of the most beautiful, deep, inspiring, outstanding, spoken word pieces I’ve EVER heard. I hope I can write like this for my future daughter, God-Willing. (The poem is only the first few minutes, but you should watch the WHOLE VIDEO!!!)

The clitoris is pure in purpose. It is the only organ in the body designed purely for pleasure. The clitoris is simply a bundle of nerves: 8000 nerve fibres, to be precise. That’s a higher concentration of nerve fibres than is found anywhere else in the body, including the fingertips, lips, and tongue, and it is twice the number in the penis. Who needs a handgun when you’ve got a semiautomatic.

Painting at: Eatonville, on U street. (named after Eatonville, FL the first real southern Black city…and “home” to Zora)

So much beauty and culture in this place, it’s no wonder the owner is the same as of Busboys & Poets. Zora Neale was such a beautiful inspiration. The manager just sat and told me her entire story, and I learned so much. Super amazing experience today. I love me some adventure!

You are not your bra size, nor are you the width of your waist, nor are you the slenderness of your calves. You are not your hair color, your skin color, nor are you a shade of lipstick. Your shoe size is of no consequence. You are not defined by the amount of attention you get from males, females, or any combination thereof. You are not the number of sit-ups you can do, nor are you the number of calories in a day. You are not your mustache. You are not the hair on your legs. You are not a little red dress. You are no amalgam of these things. You are the content of your character. You are the ambitions that drive you. You are the goals that you set. You are the things that you laugh at and the words that you say. You are the thoughts you think and the things you wonder. You are beautiful and desirable not for the clique you attend, but for the spark of life within you that compels you to make your life a full and meaningful one. You are beautiful not for the shape of the vessel, but for the volume of the soul it carries.

Mossbrae, I’d do anything to swim here.

The only slavery is ignorance, so speak up and get informed.

“That Girl.” 

One of the first spoken word pieces I ever fell in love with. This is one of the best pieces, I’ve ever heard. and I don’t care what you’ve gone through, anyone who’s ever been hurt by another can relate. In my opinion at least. Love love love. This will never get old. 

FABULOUSNESS. Check it!
