Who Am I? Just a woman falling madly, deeply, truly in love with life. A poet/writer having a wild affair with words. A person whose mission is to live from a place of joy, embracing all that's beautifully human about myself, and moving deeper into the EVOLUTION & the REVOLUTION of me. Still curious?

I guess this should be less of a question, “Can you hear me now” and more of a statement, “You CAN hear me now”. Another episode in “drunken blogging”…um, well, slightly tipsy spoken word. You might want to try this with your headset on. A work in progress….from poetry collection #2, “Dear Adam…” Um…I did tell ya’ll how sensitive I am, right? Respect dat! :O) And er’rum, “Big Daddy”, did YOU leave that crazy message on my answering machine about ’singing you to sleep’? NOT.GONNA.HAPPEN. TRUST-AND-BELIEVE.

I have left my body with joint…I wish you had a mic so that we could get clarity, because I would love to mix this joint. Truth Theory 6:01 AM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… LOL Thanks Truth. I do so appreciate your energy. We’ll have to work on the mic - that’s easy enough to correct. We’ll talk. I still have questions about loading it to the other site. :O) 6:21 AM, May 07, 2007 Anonymous said… Jaizy, I like this - the poem and the chorus you wrapped it in. Can’t believe you posted it since you’re so “shy”. I’m wondering how long you’re going to leave it up. You’re cheating though - why does your voice sound so low on the chorus and why didn’t you sing the whole thing? I know I’m going to pay for that, right? (I did at least keep this post in all English. Do I get points for that?) Nick 6:38 AM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… Hey You! Thought you were recouping. And I am “shy” dammit! AND sensitive. (Think Erykay Badu @ the start of “Tyrone” - “keep in mind I’m an artist & I’m sensitive about my sht! LOL) Re: how long I’m leaving it up, you know me much too well. Voice sounding low? Um, could be the fact that I recorded this after the wine festival (many samples on an empty stomach), sinuses kicking & just plain old nerves. Sing the whole thing? Dude you musta fell & bumped your head. Any points you might have gained were lost with THAT comment. 6:55 AM, May 07, 2007 UnKnownDiva said… that was beautiful… there’s a whole lot of adams out here who need to listen to this AND…..i’d be very disappointed if it was taken down xoxoxo 10:43 AM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… Hey UKD!! Thanks. Yeah, that’s pretty much what the next collection is about…an ode to all the “Adams” of the world. I might leave it up for a bit. We’ll see. 11:32 AM, May 07, 2007 Anonymous said… Hey J~ Jill Scott called. She wants her wine bottle back. Mos Def Called and said there is a spot for you on Def Jam… Sonya Sanchez called and wanted you to play some bones with her Maya and Nikki… and Prince Called and say something about “Do Me Baby????” 12:29 PM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… You.Are.Too.Funny.For.Words. And um, by the way, I was “in” by the time you got to Mos Def. All da rest of dat? Bonus baby! :O) Had it been Peabo? I’d be on a plane YES-TER-DAY. 12:34 PM, May 07, 2007 Shai said… Wow! Go head Mz. Jackie. I loved this piece. Now a voice to a face. Cannot wait to finally meet ya. 6:13 PM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… Thanks Shai. It was fun to do, except that part where the phone was ringing in the background (I cut that piece out). LOL 6:22 PM, May 07, 2007 princessdominique said… Whoooooooooa. Wait. I’ma listen again. BRB. 6:47 PM, May 07, 2007 princessdominique said… I absolutely most definitely need the album. Seriously. If the next collection doesn’t come with an album, I’m gonna hurt somebody, not you but somebody. Now how can we make that happen sister dear? You know you were created to do that! It was glorious! 6:48 PM, May 07, 2007 MsJayy said… Album huh? Hmmm…you know I’m shy. giggle* We’ll see how it goes. You know what a basket case I was when it was “just” a book. A book AND a cd? You & the rest of the “inner circle” crew betta get ready for email/phone overload. See? Now I’m hyperventilating. Note to self: B-R-E-A-T-H-E! 7:00 PM, May 07, 2007 Single Ma said… Whoa! You REALLY put it DOWN this time mama! I like that. I really do. Now I know you got skillz, but umm, can I ask you a question? DA HELL YOU MAKE US WAIT SO LONG TO HEAR SOMETHING LIKE THIS?!?!?!?! You wrong man! mean mugging you Now you can make it up to us by posting more just like it. Ha! 1:05 PM, May 09, 2007 MsJayy said… Hey Girlie!! blushing Thank you. Um. Why I made ya’ll wait? Um. Well. What had happened was… Girl you KNOW I be shy - don’t even trip. Plus, I’ve never been a huge fan of my voice…til somebody told me that liked it, that it was sexy. giggle Um, my speaking voice that is cause ’somebody’ never heard me sing. Folks rarely do, ‘less they sit next to me at church. :O) 1:59 PM, May 09, 2007 CreoleInDC said… Wait…you’re shy? Says who? Says what? Says when? That was FABULOUS Princess and I too, expect more like it! LOLOLOLOL! It was EXACTLY what the blogosphere needs! 9:25 PM, May 09, 2007 MsJayy said… Hey Girlie Girl! I am shy dammit!
