This Poem Doesn't Even Exist

Nobody tells me I'm pretty.
My hipsterish ways should act as the great wall that keeps this from effecting me.
Beauty is in everyone, everything.
It's just that the beauty of some is more critically acclaimed.
So why do I, as an underground gem, crave the standing of a Top 40 ho?

"My beauty comes in the form of shifty eyes bouncing up and down from my curls to my ankles, shy glances, static stares, greetings and goodbyes;
only observed, never possessed by anyone but me.
My beauty? It's the truth! It doesn't sell-out," she said
as the True Religion jean wearing stranger whistled at her, the tune of her youth, in his laceless shoes.
"Ayo ma, psssssst pssssssssst...that chip on your shoulder sure looks like it tastes good," he said
striking me with the fear that my closet beliefs, backyard desires, and situational ideologies wouldn't hold up with a knife at my neck and a gun to my head,
as i write these words in black ink on black paper in this pitch black room. This poem doesn't even exist.

"My beauty is sneaky and ruthless, covert and quiet. It doesn't glow in the dark!"

Phew...I feel better now. How about you?

El Tigeerraassoooo

This is what i'd like to call productive procrastination. It's when you direct all your procrastination into performing one particular task so when you fail at life you at least have something to show for it!

So i heard this song El Tigeraso by Maluca and now it's my jaaaam!
The Beat, The Sodacans, the everything. Love Love Love, Check it out!


What's up with "El Tigeraso"?

Dominicans call the bad boys on the corner who are up to no good – but who have mad swag – Tigeres. "El Tigeraso" is the game or swag. Growing up, I would go visit my cousins or grandma Uptown. Back then, you couldn't get from one corner to the next without those "Tigeres" trying to holler at you. It was kinda outta control. Especially if you walked down Broadway. So the song "El Tigeraso" is poking fun at that whole situation. When I say "throwing all that Tigeraso in air," I mean: "You're throwing so much game at me (literally it's in the air... kinda like a fog) that I can't even get to next corner. Wassup wit that?"

From Maluca's Interview with Mun2



Around My Way We Call Them Limones, mhm. Well maybe that's just me and my friends.
All other things aside, I love me some Tigeres!

A little this, A little that


VS.

(This photo is by themorrigan @ deviant art)
So...there's a distinct difference between telling someone step by step how to do something and inspiring them to create their own different maybe more developed interpretation. (Btdubz this is what i love about Nylon Magazine. Now that i've matured i can move on from the step by step of Seventeen and do my own thing ooowww)

If you've read Steve Harvey's "Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man." You would know that this is the essence of that book. I avoided the last 2 chapters like the plague cause wtf does that hafta do with me? but really the book is just about the psychology of the male versus the psychology of the female and how the female can manipulate that to get what they want out of a relationship. it's not like "make sure u put your hair in a red scrunchie every third thursday of the month." No no no! Lord knows i hate crap like that.

Why go from this

to This?

WTTTTFFFF?????!!!!!!!

Well I was just on Facebook and if your an avid facebookee you've probably seen that group called "why do guys cheat on pretty girls with ugly girls?" or something like that. Some guys actually commented on the wall to give some incite saying things like "it's because the male mindset focuses on quantity, while the female mind focuses on quality." or in less words, they just wanna spread their damn seed.

I just saw this video posted in my newsfeed. (People may either get hyped up or tight cause my subject matter can reflect their statuses but i don't watch the news so...You guys inspire me! I don't care either way cause that means you reading my blog =) therefore I looove yooouu.)

This video explains the cheating idea more in depth.



Feel free to comment. Imaginary friends are cool and all but not for a blog!
