If it is but a dream, let me dream it; If it is to be, then let it be. But let it be right Lord, let it be right, as if she were made for me.
I look at her and I see me; like the earth just shook and we fell from the same tree.
Her eyes like mine, her soul her skin; they mirror my reflection I feel her deep within.
So let this union last the earth and stand above its sands.
For there's nothing quite like she and I Black Woman and Black Man...


I've been gone from here for a good while and since I've been coming to this site in 2005 and becoming an active participant in 2006 I have learned a lot about people, including myself. The people on this board are real. You guys don't always agree but if nothing else you are all yourselves and make a point to be that way.
I've been writing my entire life but only published one of many novels written. The point being and the reason that I placed this post here is that there is a rhyme and reason to this life. Expression is the ultimate form of acknowledgment of one's self or to whatever audience is being spoken to. I spent the last year in West africa Away from the American Idols, the BET's, the 30 second spots for prescription drugs and violent crime on the evening news. (although there was definitely some crazy stuff going on in Senegal.
I had the opportunity to do for others again in Africa and it gave me an even better appreciation for my people all over the world. I came back from Africa and and found my true Love my Soulmate, the one I should have always been with instead of running around the world for the past 20+ years and I Married her nearly on the spot. She is a Strong Black Woman with a heart of gold and she Loves me with her every being.
I was thinking about the chaotic nature of this site while I was gone because it so reminded me of my life. My inner struggles, my questions about humanity and most of all the contrast of my life and mode of thought as compared to those I liken to myself, those I call my people. Every once in a while most of you show an incredible human side that makes me proud to be a part of this site. Some of you might remember the pretty fierce literal fights that make coming here difficult at times. (But y'all know it's like crack)
But most of all it's the message that keeps us all in tune with each other, and that's like poetry... you all are like music to my constant beat.
Preshiate cha!

Stand back and protect your shoes if Abm is around, cuz he's sure to hurl chunks after that emotional display!!!!

Otherwise, very well put, indeed. Batmocop, I haven't read alot of your posts yet, so I don't know what to make of you. I do know that everything I've read thus far reminds me of the way I used to write....(I meant that as a complement). One thing I've learned while on these discussion boards is to make my comments as clear as I possibly can because the way you intend something to be recieved doesn't always come across that way when read by someone else. I'm sure you don't have that problem, I was merely passing something on in case it may be able to benefit someone. U never know, right?

I'm a man Lambd, and have nothing to fear... This board is by far one of the most intriguing I've ever been a part of. But a humbling experience is better shared than kept silent. As far as what to make of me? I bring the noise when I have to, there are certain people on this board I will peel the skin off of if confronted by them. ABM doesn't bother me, and never has. He is a cog in the wheel that makes this place click like it does. I Love my people good or bad. That's about as deep as it gets...

Blood!
From my heart it beats as it's smeared across my brow, I fight with you cause my pride it keeps me tight, so check me now! So why you think you all that girl? You know I'm not the one, there's bout 50 women up in here; yep, more where you came from. And if the next one acts up I'll toss her aside and see if her friend wants to ride. Why y'all always gotta ask why, I like big backsides I like thick thighs. But I step to you with a smile on my face and my first word you think is a lie. If I drive a Vette does that mean I speed? If I ride alone do I not have needs? You think you've got me figured out, but all you do is judge me, and all that noise about good men? You really startin to bug me. You would'nt know a good man if he wiped his coat off after it stood beneath your feet. You'd probably sneer and say som' smart like keep your clothes out the street. But you know me well and all my brothas, the butt of all your jokes. Well see what's real when some vibratin toy has got your strokes. Your sistah is the one who got you in trouble when she told you about me first. What she didn't tell you was she lied about the pill before her baby daddy was the worst.
So here I am in all my fame the one you hate the most, I take the blame for what someone did but lives on different coasts. Yep, we are all the same y'all label us as dogs. I can't dress nice or be thugged out but check my epilogue. I Love my Sis and treat her well but stories told have brought me hell, just stepping to you was my mistake cause right away you tried to break, my pride, my manhood for all your friends whose pain was caused by different ends. I watch you as you get your pounds and high fives from your girls. When a brotha only wanted a dance you set out to bust his world. But now you see me up on stage on tour with the main attraction, and the look on your face with you and your pack brings me nothing but satisfaction. It didn't have to be like that. That Henny got your tongue. Every brotha in the world aint out to get you, every brotha in the world aint dumb.
You make us say that we don't need you, you make us call you B*tch, cause y'all got education now and it's y'all the one's that's rich. So how you like bein me? Now that I'm what used to be you, I'm an underappreciated being that's nothing without you. Without you Im a dog but with you Im a burden I say this now cause with all your talk I finally get a word in. Look at my mistakes and see the path of hurt they laid, then look back and see the trail of hurt your footsteps made. We will never win on opposite sides we're as strong as one another. We'll only make it work one way you my Sistah, me your Brotha…

How about, breaking your "raps" down into 4-line verses, babe, so I won't get lost in the maze of words.

Lol!!!!!!!!!!
Cneek. I was thinking the same thing but I didn't know how to say it without hurting Batmo's feelings or drawing him into a duel of words.

Otherwise, good stuff, Bmc. Like that art too.

Sorry, it's hard not to get carried away sometimes. And don't worry about my ego, I'm far from frail. I've had as many bad reviews as good ones...
