“Tell me who i have to be
To get some reciprocity” 
This black love had strengthened its grip on me.
When black clouds weighed me down,
This Black girl’s smile could lift me from my worsened tendencies.
Tell me who I have to be. 
to experience black boy joy in its Entirety.
Black skin furthered melanated by the summer days.
Black thought level complexities. 
Black’s my favourite colour and you wear it so comfortably.
C’mon Black girl lemme praise you to infinity.
You rock me to my core. 
My heart has blackened and calloused over time. 
Black Habits are what are defining me.

When your skin leaves mine I be having withdrawals.
Your brown skin drips so sweet its like I’m caught in your Ebony Falls.
Sparkle your eye’s Ivory like Herbie Hancock,
And serve you like I’m Ebony Maww.
No Salieri Shit,I wanna be knee deep, explore the sin of your Ebony thoughts.
I wanna learn your Roots, I’m in awe how i get lost all up in your Ebony Art.
It’s like every time you speak, my heart tweaks to the song of your Ebony drawl.  Sunkissed bliss it’s like you’ve been touched by the Ebony Gods.
Sweet Ebony Jesus. 
Save me a piece of your Ebony Heart. 
Stuck to you, Miles Morales, I know it’s a part of you Ebony Power.
A spell so strong, drenched in the aroma of your Ebony Shower.
And that’s on everything Great in the world that makes you the true obsidian gem that you are. 

Hello 2023.

Care to send more blessings my way? In any shape? In any form? I’m open!

~t.f.

I will be a cycle breaker. Every negative cycle that i fell victim to, or haunts my family no longer has power over me. I release it. I will intentionally move past worse ways that keep me stuck. I release them. I embrace positivity and will intentionally practice being positive in all spaces.

Today is a new day. I will build myself up. I know my value. I move forward.

Hello pre 2016 David. Nice to meet you here in the valley. You get what you deserve .

Planted Trees grow tall.
When the roots spread deep and strong.
my garden is yours.

Hi.

Truly till the grass to reap the reward.

The crops of this season’s labour will be a healthier me.

The hard and long days of working through my feelings will allow all blessing the rain down on me.

Nobody said the Gardener’s labour would be easy.

But the harder the work the sweeter the bounty will be.

Truly truly till the grass. Truly work at whatever it is needs to be worked at this weekend. You’ll be better for it.

Stay safe. Stay kind to you. Reach out to those that matter most and let them know they are important to you. Don’t just till your garden but also spend time watering other’s and help ease their workload.

Comment or reach out if you ever need.

Yoo.

I’n the flower shining through the burned down field. I hope to lead others into newness. And if I have to stand tall and take the brunt of the weather so that others can grow freely in any direction I take that on. God really has protected me. And now I can be in a space to hold space for others. Despite my pain and shortcomings.

Take care of yourself today if you’re reading this. Do something new. Or find something new in something old.

Imagine me taking this for granted.
I’ve been trying to enjoy the mysteries, without stressing to understand them.
How could I judge someone else’s humanity?
When the humanity is what’s attractive.
I share sentiments with Smino’s “Lee & Lovie” when it’s blasting. 

This is my Lowest point since 2013, but I’m better equipped to manage. 
I have to shout out the Most High for the seeds that he planted.
My soul’s damaged.
And maybe I damaged a few souls myself.
I just want to make it easier for us all, 
before my time’s ended.

I gotta thank her for the period of her time that I was handed. 
Spotted back insecurities, like a four element bender. 
I take elements from all the lessons I learned, and I’m trying to blend them. 

I use work to clear my mind.
The ocean to heal my soul.
The earth to heal my wounds. 
And the Pad to to make it all easier and to keep me PLANTED.
