DESTINY

What would you do if Destiny called?
No...scratch that
What would you do if Destiny showed up
Unexpectedly
Unnanounced
Knocking on the screen door of your soul

Would you ignore her?
Pretend you're not home?
Ask her to leave?
Or would you invite her in
And feel your soul explode into particles of ecstasy
Annihilating all that had the misfortune
Of being within its perimeter

Would you choose the safety and comfort
Of a life in the throes of monotonous quiet desperation?
Or would you choose the hot, electric charge
That only comes from wrapping everything you are
Around the thing that not only dances with you
But within you?

And if Destiny walked up to you in front of everyone
And kissed you on the mouth...
Would you have the guts to kiss her back?

YOUR KISS - SO GOOD...

Your kiss - so good...
It makes my heart race
Takes me to a beautiful place
I just love to see your face so close to mine
You are so fine...please be mine

Your kiss - so good...
And baby, I don't mean to be crass
But I swear you must've taken a class
'Cuz your technique is unsurpassed....with your sexy ass!
Sorry - didn't mean to curse or be perverse
Just tryin' to reharse and kick this verse
About how you make me feel - inside

Your kiss - so good...
It makes me come correct
But inside I'm just a wreck like Shrek from just one peck
And when you kiss my neck OOH! What the heck
What the hell...how hard I fell down love's well
It ain't hard to tell
You rock my world, baby girl

Your kiss - so good...
Mmm - all I can do is moan
You givin' me that love jones
Wanna jump your bones
Baby, let me pay off all your damn loans!

Your kiss - so good...
It's a wonderful sensation
Just the mere anticipation
Makes me wanna call the TV station and yell HEY!
"Her kiss is the best in all the nation..."
Damn - got me talkin' like a Haitian!

Your kiss - so good...
It's sweeter than sweet
For the love of Pete
It knocks me off my feet, picks me up
Then knocks me back down again
Like a bowling ball to a pin
So good it must be a sin 'cause like a fifth of gin
Your kiss goes straight to my head
Yeah, that's what I said!

Your kiss - so good...
It's like Godiva, Hershey and Ghiradelli inside my belly
Like a Nestle's Crunch or a Sunday brunch
At the Four Seasons - your kiss is so pleasin'
And you're the reason

Your kiss - so good...
And I don't know why
It leaves me short of my oxygen supply
Makes it difficult to reply
It gets me up so high - whew!
I can't help but sigh
Like my momma's 7-Up cake AND her lemon meringue pie
Except better
I love you to the letter

Your kiss - so good...
That I cannot resist
It's pure bliss
Don't want to miss
Don't wanna "coulda-woulda-shoulda"
And not take that chance that our lips would never glance
That we would never ever dance - together - forever
And miss all that makes you you

You - you
Me - me
You and me
I love you

Mmmmuuaaahhh!

YEAH, I THINK YOU'RE CRAZY...

Yeah, I think you're crazy

But wonderfully so

Your observations of the masses

And your wishes of peace for all

Leave me wanting to hear more

To learn more

To love more

I listen to your tales of whimsy

And your flights of fancy

Hoping that on your next trip

That you take me with you

BEAUTIFUL YOU

Your love to me is the freshest air
Filling my lungs to capacity
Then exhaling slowly
Feeling the sensation of joy that you bring
It's a wonderful thing

Right about now
I'd love to be wrapped up with you
In Egyptian Cotton
Italian Silk
African Kente
Even a polyester comforter
Just to feel the warmth of your body
Smell the aroma of your skin once again
See the sparkle in your eyes
Taste the sweetness of your neck on my lips
Hear the loveliness that is your voice

You are not just a lovely flower
You are an entire garden
Full of color and vibrance
Making me want to linger
And take in another deep breath
And again experinece all that is terrifically you

Incredibly you

Amazingly you

Extraordinarily you

Beautiful you

CRAZY-ASS WORLD

This is a crazy-ass world
Chaos and anarchy abound
But when you're around
The world makes sense
Either that or it just ceases to matter

The moment - the magic
Perhaps that strong Black love
Intertwined spirits
Taking time to dance
Or feeding the urge to merge
Doin' it 'til the cops come knockin'

Whatever it is, I like it
And this crazy-ass world keeps on spinnin'
Waiting for us to jump back on
But until then...
Let's dance!
