PAD Challenge Day 28: Two-for-Tuesday: "Human Love Subjects" and "To Be A Hater, or Not to Be"

PAD Challenge Day 28: Two-for- Tuesday: Write a love and/or anti-love poem. 

Human Love Subjects

I love studying the whole heart of you 
as you heart the biology of me
You're always hypothetically 
determined to solve
what and who we could be

I love surveying our history
Yours is almost identical to me
Full of evolution, purpose, 
resilence and self-efficacy
Together always valiantly sharing 
why when and where we should be
Making life more interesting and
interactive when we intervene 

I love the analytics of your attitude
and how it measures a space 
for vulnerability and sensitivity
You're always processing the raw 
even in the gray area 
of your own inaccuracies 
Generating softer patterns 
for me to discover 
a better you with me

To Be A Hater, or Not To Be

to be a hater 
verily
ye must hate  
everything
the nature of someone else 
even the nature of thyself
thy lips of thee heart 
always spewing ill will
though it slay and 
chide thine own ego's thrill

to not be a hater 
verily 
ye must shift 
thine own eyes to thee
gaily hark
to thine own heart passionately
love hither then thither for you
and behold it within
cautiously amongst all haters
who discreetly hate you
without valid reasoning

PAD Challenge Day 30: Sticky Notes 2 Self ft. Loose-leaf Paper (This is the Remix) 🗒📝

PAD Challenge Day 30: Take one of your poems (or several of your poems) from earlier this month and remix it. Write a remix poem. Sticky Notes 2 Self ft. Loose-leaf Paper (This is the Remix) 🗒📝 Sometimes-at-times a 3x3 sticky note is too tiny.  Loose-leaf Paper can tell it all and rule on college rule.  Break it down.  I can go in depth,  line by line, about  the things I tell myself: "Dear Black Girl, remember why you rock and settle for nothing less." I have no choice but to be the catalyst in this generation . Because there are people like Queen momma told me that don't want me to have nothing at all.  Be nothing at all. They rather see me stumble and fall between crevices they didn't survive or build blocks to block me into being a flunkie. So, every time I win, achieve, prosper, I must do what what my ancestors didn't get a chance to do . That's my legacy. Be EXTRA good in a negative world so when people talk about me...

PAD Challenge Day 29 (Two-for-Tuesday): Write a "near the end" and/or "near the beginning" poem. Near the End of Burn Out We all faced many end  of the roads where we want  to throw in the towel Throw up our hands  Hide our hearts  Shield our backs Save our other cheek Second guess our  intentions and purpose  We may even want  to walk away from it  all while it remains  worth what it is worth before we completely lose ourselves or our marbles Until self-care urgently  calls us to gently say It is okay to pause survival mode It is okay to lead your way out of  leading everything and everybody Come back I have a safe place  for you to rest your eyes,  and bones I have shelter for you to ease your emotional intelligence and empathy I have soul food  to fill your soul. Near the Beginning of New Anew Unused Never done On the way I see it clear Scent of lilac  Ready for my tongue Like a drop of honey Feels like heave...
