"The love expressed between women is particular and powerful, because we have had to love in order to live; love has been our survival."

Audre Lorde (via reclaimingthelesbiantag)




"For women, then, poetry is not a luxury. It is a vital necessity of our existence. It forms the quality of the light within which we predicate our hopes and dreams toward survival and change, first made into language, then into idea, then into more tangible action. Poetry is the way we help give name to the nameless so it can be thought. The farthest horizons of our hopes and fears are cobbled by our poems, carved from the rock experiences of our daily lives."

Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider (via reclaimingthelesbiantag)

Thank you Audre

Varnette Honeywood, Come into my kitchen





You’re all I ever wanted but I’m terrified of you…


Pardon my vent…

I am beyond frustrated…in the past year that I’ve lived in texas, my creativity has struggled immensely…granted, creativity is contagious and i lack a substantial influential creative base here, but damn…then there’s the issue of staying medicated…I enjoy my manic episodes…I’m able to create amazing things, be it sketch, painting, or poem…but once the mania ends, that depression is a bitch…but even then I’m able to tap into something powerful…nonetheless, at this point in my journey I know it’s not wise to deviate from my treatment plan…it’s just really upsetting to fight through foggy thoughts and jittery hands when there’s a simple solution…oh well.. c’est la fucking vie

Vent over





This message is right on time

My “Hurricane Heart”, beginning and end.

I knew she was going to be a goddess of water and chaos from the very start. Her beauty was always going to be about her power, and her capacity for destruction. 

Now complete, and on display at the Art Society of Trinidad and Tobago.

"Take a day to heal from the lies you’ve told yourself and the ones that have been told to you."

Maya Angelou (via the-healing-nest)


Love is not manipulative…at times, love may require compromise, but never of your integrity…




You asked me why I cared how you were…as if you weren’t a chapter in my diary…




Spirituality is not about measuring up but about consistent improvement…religion defines a righteous man, morality guides a spiritual one…





Grandmother, aunt, mother, me…
