Poetry: 6:11
This isn’t a fancy newsletter, this isn’t a diary, this isn’t anything formal, it’s not edited. It’s just a complication of those as a form of therapy. It may be damaging and it may always be revolutionary. Either way I’m opening up a can of thoughts and that’s all. If it resonates then cool if not that also alright. This just seemed like the safest thing to do as a black woman in America.
Sometimes all we have is just or words and that enough can be restorative for oneself and others.
To just be in proximity to a black woman
Is an
ATTEMPT
to get closer to favor to God
To take advantage of such proximity
It to ensure your path to damnation
To be shut out by a black woman
Will guarantee your annihilation
Tread carefully

I haven’t written poetry in a while. Years. Every now and then I’ve been compelled to write, but not like this. I woke up to a stream of tears so release is necessary and I think that writing more may be helpful. I don’t know if it’s the state of the world, personal crisis and reflections, or if it’s just hormones. I just know that the need to depressor myself is a current requirement.
There’s so many thoughts and feeling in my head I decided to head over to chat gpt, my personal astrologist, to check my charts. The results were inline with those of an actual practitioners!
So it’s funny that writing seemed like something safe to do, when it’s also something we were not always allowed to do. A black woman with a writing tool feels safe while simultaneously destructive. I love it
Have you been feeling out of sorts since the last full moon?
Not sure if you saw this talk about the term: Hyper-Normalization. It felt like the best word to describe my current status. An internal war with what I feel vs what the world is telling us to feel. I know I’m right because my intuition is divinely guided. And on that note I’ll be stepping off of Meta platforms for a while catch me on Fanbase and Substack for here on out.
I wish you nothing but love and light queens stay grounded and regal!
