New Year, Old Hiatus

Ok so I've been around. Enjoying the holidays with my family and friends. My social life has been a lot more active than usual, which is nice. I pray that is something that stays the same next year.

But after having a meltdown from trying a new cake recipe that literally crumbled in my hands, my day hasn't gone as planned. So I chalk that up to the old year, and just sigh, and humbly accept all my blessings, even when things don't go as expected.

My natural hair journey continues. I meant to take a picture of my braid out that was kept in for 4 days against my mercy and turned into wavy loveliness, but as I said, my day didn't go as planned.

So sigh...tis life.

Everyone have a wonderful and safe New Year.  I'll be back shortly to share new inspirations and my life as I know it.

God Bless!

Write Byte: My "Dichotic Personality Dualities"

Spirit filled with androgyny.
I'm rougher around the edges than I seem.
My spirit cuts through these frills and lace like Freddy in a dream.

Finesse of a queen, mannerisms of the ghetto fabulous.

I grab my crotch in 4-inch heels to prove a point.

Blast my music and let rappers spit the sweetest boombastic venom in my ears.

Bop my head and sway like a champ.

Curtsy and say merci like its a tea party.
Too bad I'm the Mad Hatter.

No Alice here.
Just Wonder's Land.

My Cheshire grin hiding the sin in my swag.

An angel with 1 broken wing.

Cuss like a sailor, smile like a princess, walk like a model, strut like a thug.

Write Byte: Life's Lies

I'm trapped in a 4-walled city without my soul,
Got no idea how to find it.
It left me a long time ago.

So I sojourn.
Not just for truth but for all things.

The water to quench my thirst,
The Earth to mold to my feet,
The wind to wrap around my waist,
And take me from here.

So I can leave this shallow filled glass of dreams half fulfilled,
And find hope's giant old key,
And use it to unlock the broken doors,
My heart locked away for rejection's sake.

And melt into the surrounding oceans,
To wipe away my tears.

And wash away all my old sins to become anew.

Rise from my ashes and be reborn.
For my soul has reunited with the body.
