About Me



"exactly how i imagined her in my head
all symmtrical and all brown like copper
house keys but without the ring
that attaches it to the charm
yup, a free key, loose to be lost or tossed
wherever she likes, no binds or bonds
but at the same time, if kept track of,
opens locks to amazement and wonder" ~t

"kinda black, kinda bold,
ghetto soul beautiful,
stealin it for you to hold
cover girl centerfold" ~j5
