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?

“Bad Habit”- courtesy of Maxwell & Yours Truly

Poe-Ahh-Tree + Rhythm Section + Wordstew - (2) BackTalked

My bad habit Pictures, Images and Photos

*cough* *cough*

:::thinking to self, “It sho’ is dusty up in this piece! A sista ain’t been here in much more than a minute, huh?:::

Say you missed me. Lie to me dammit! LOL

Say you still love me. Say it. Ahhhh….

Antywho, in the 50-11 years since I last posted so very much has happened. Relax, I’m not gonna detail it here. (And the two people who will read this breathed a sigh of relief. LOL)

Naw, I’m gonna just drop this video of Maxwell singing “Bad Habit”. That song seems to be on repeat in my mind since I first heard it. Might be cause that new CD travels with me everywhere I go. Love it. He’s grown as an artist and yet, remained the same Maxwell we’ve come to know and love. Sho’ hope it won’t be another 8 years before we’re able to satisfy our musical cravings with new music.

Thought I treat you (and myself) to this live rendition of “Bad Habit” and dish up a poem I wrote a while back by the same title.

Enjoy both!

bad habit

they say…
you’re a bad habit
i smile
thinking to myself
that you aren’t really a bad habit
i just have a bad habit of thinking about you
i shyly invite them to keep their 12-step program
…unless it brings me 12 steps closer to you

**Sho’ wish I could get to the final edited version of this piece. Alas, it is not to be. Well, not at the moment. Le Sigh **

Enjoy your day! Watch those “Bad Habits” - they can be addictive.

Smooches!

PSA #9: “Crazy” Logic

PSA - No BackTalk

please stand by

THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

Stop trying to rationalize “Crazy”. “Crazy” doesn’t need a reason to do what it does. It never has. It never will. Stop contorting yourself in an effort of find logic in the madness and just back away. And stay away.

Crazy doesn’t need a reason.

Don’t give it an audience.
