To My Princess
By Shacfowman
...and I shall hail the kings of heaven,
asail the angel's Flight.
And the oceans shall minor a crimson sky,
and winds shall hallow the night.
But neither the demons of hell below,
Nor the angels of heaven above
Shall ever dissever my heart from your heart
Or endeavor to crush our love.
And thus I retire to close my eyes
and dream my dreams anew.
For in my dreams my impossible dreams,
I shall walk with you...
HIS SONG
By Venus
COLD, ALONE
I SIT
DRENCHED IN HIS ERUPTION
LOUD
EVIL
ENCOMPASSED BY THE TEMPEST
HE SINGS THE DEVIL'S SONG
IMMERSED IN THE VENOM
MY NAME
HIS EYES RED, GLARING
HE SINGS THE DEVIL'S SONG
REEKING OF HIS BODY
I CRY
STREAMING DOWN
THE PAIN
HE SINGS THE DEVIL’S SONG
REMEMBERING THE PASSION, THE LOVE
HE ONCE LOVED
BEGUILED
THE TEARS DROP
LIKE A FLOOD
THEY BURN MY CHEEKS
THE CHEEKS HE ONCE KISSED
HE SINGS THE DEVIL’S SONG
BEATEN
I SOB
BEATEN BY HIS EVIL WORDS
TREMBLING
I SIT
LONGING TO BE HELD
I DIE
AGAIN
THERE I SIT
THE ANGEL, LISTENING TO THE DEVIL’S SONG.
The Riot You Incited In My Mind
By Jimmie Ophelia Woods, Jr.
As I lay in my bed, at dusk, a thought passed through my mind
I am thankful that I have eyes to see the woman that is mine
For it is a horrible thought to think, of having no eyes to blink
Or not seeing you when they reopen
As I lay in my bed, a second thought passed through my mind
An eternal relationship created by my own design
My queen’s glistening smile illuminates day and night
And in a small wooden shed I build your throne by the moonlight
As I lay in my bed, another thought passed through
That as you appeared before me the creator was impressed too
A thought I refuse to ponder, that you could possibly not exist
Whether we met by chance or intention, you fulfill my wish
As I lay in my bed, I entertained the next thought in line
Of how powerful you will be when you rule God's gift, the blackmind
For when you do, you will love yourself, and know why
A speechless smile appears on my face as I stare into your sculptured eyes
As I lay in my bed, this thought came without preparation
I was able to gaze at our minds blessedly entangled beyond separation
Unexpressed elation causes my cup to runeth over with thoughts of you as I lay in my
bed...

Fosters Guilt
Dear Jasmine & Jabere:
I am a student in the AUC and I live alone in a one bedroom apart
ment off campus. I’ve been working at a strippers club since last
year to pay for my rent and my tuition. I really like working at this
club because it pays well. My problem is that I haven’t told my
mom and I feel guilty. She believes that I still live on campus with
my room mate and I still work in a fast food restaurant She sends
me money every now and then, but this only covers my bills.
Should I tell my mom the truth, or just leave things the way they are
now.
Sincerely,
Private Dancer
Dear Private Dancer:
I think you should tell your mom the truth sine it’s weighing heavi
ly on your conscience. It is possible that your mother will be under
standing and accept your career choioe. It is also just as likely that
she will not. Whatever her response is to the news of your new
career, she will have to respect your decision and appreciate your
honesty. She will have to understand that you are an adult handling
an adult situation.
Jasmine
I disagree with Jasmine, I don’t think you should tell your mom.
You are an adult and obviously capable of leading your own life.
You are doing what you need to do in order to get by and for that,
my sister, you have my respect By the way, what’s the name of the
club? Jabere
