Dem daisies use photosynthesis to make they own food. They sprout from all of the water and the sunshine, even on clouded days-they still shine. See here I gots my moon flower, moon pennies, and Priest’s collar growing from my earth. Some rooted- well soiled earth from behind my eyes and my lips. Stands her ground, feet close to the ground in color worship of that which is alive and well and blooming.-Gracie

I Ain’t No Playa. I Don’t Crush Allot
Image

Aah…like the swift ending of a toddler tantrum I’m over my crush now. Yes, I’m 34 and still get crushes sometimes. For anyone that has had a crush on someone the feeling can be confusing because they’re new to you and you aren’t sure of how to act. My crush gave me some tiny perspective on what kind of love I want when I grow up lol! Was sweet. -Gracie

The Rain Is My Prodigy
Didn’t you know? The rain is my prodigy. My heart becomes clean when I cry. Forgive the rain. It needs to pour like this right now. And remember when cleansing things tend to get worse before they get better, so use caution-given all of the flood warnings today in PA. Stay safe out there!-Gracie
She Be Like “Sunkissess by Sherneen Berry (beautiful poem my cuz wrote to me today)
May 16, 2014 ❤
She be like “Sunkissess… honor ya spirit at all cost, but ask if your advice is needed before you advise other folk on their personal shit…. and never forget to be liberated. Also, see something say someone. Cus guess what if I am silent about my pain they will kill me say I liked it!” This Girl be like… a glass of fresh brewed tea with honey and lemon on a cool summer day. Nothing less than organic doe. The type of person the world needs more of. Lovely as the day. Peaceful as the night. She can take words like slut, hoe, bitch, nigga, whore, fag, dyke, butch and redefine den shits and have you like damn that’s a new way to look at it…. once I heard her say that she’d actually sit down with a kkk member just to hear his point of view… of course she have a few things to add of her own. She really like a beast with the anatomy of a human being… the true meaning of a full package! Taught me how to grow… how to know and how to light up a show! Taught me about detachment and lectured me on the importance of setting boundaries. Reminds me to pick my battles…. hell I can’t think of a single force that could stop this chick… almost like she untouchable or some shit. She is a great treat! Her spirit is big as the universe and when her lips move the stars probably start shining brighter.That’s how powerful she is. At times she can be stank as Lancaster when they just got done putting down horse maneuver… then she can turn around and be all that you ever needed in life! All in the same day too. Lol #she #be my sleepy bear the amazing Gracie Berriberry love to my rib without you I would be incomplete!” (Teeth)-Sherneen

Dedication to the world! Close Your Eyes
Video
“Plenty of things I wish that I can undo. Everything good and too good to be true. You think there’s nothing new under the sun. And there’s a piece of you coming undone. Close your eyes and step into another time. Really wanna know what music makes you feel inside.”-Meshell Ndegeocello
Ancestrial Fight: How Alexis Groggins Survived 6 Bullets
Image
The little lady in the picture is Alexis Goggins, 7 at the time of the photo. As the caption reads she shielded her mother, Selietha Parker from the enraged gunman, that shot a total of 9 bullets into her and her mother in 2007. Alexis screamed at him not to shoot her mother. The 911 responses were a joke here! They call and say there is a possible kidnapping/hostage situation, with a gun and child, and the one operator hangs up, the second says, ” We don’t have a unit available to send.” Our ancestors helped them both survive by putting a fight in that little one, so powerful that they had no choice but to live.
