  • Time is Money

    The value I need 
    to meet in my man
    Exceeds a check list
    or well laid plan

    time money 
    sense of self
    should go without saying
    enough, I’m done 

    not playing 
    around
    come to me come to me come to
    beg pardon plead
    respect and what exactly does that mean

    breadcrumbs and morsels
    keep going please
    kind words and security
    only
    for me 
    I’m worthy,
    I am enough

  • With a Smile

    




    You do it with grace
    He says
    Raise three kids
    A home, a family
    career

    what options are there?
    I hustle 
    nights and weekends
    til the arm falls off

    over worked
    exhaustion
    smile for the kids
    til I can’t anymore 

    passion for hair
    he sees
    Rembrandt Picasso Matisse
    all in a days work 

    appointment making 
    blow drying 
    taxing
    name a few

    responsibilities 
    until 
    add on the gf effect
    to please 
    attention with morning calls dinner 

    ill make your life easier
    he says
    bs I call

    living for the long way home
    kitchen dancing
    theater retreat
    god damn, lucky dog lucky dog lucky dog
    no, I AM
