We Kept Waiting

We kept waiting for the beat to drop….
off us
cause what was spewing form this music box sounded off
shaking "booty meat"
to same beat
used a thousand times
stuck in this repeated melody of bitch,
hoe,
girl slide down that pole
cause apparently
that's the only thing this God given temple is good for
Apparently
our curves are more important than depths of the oceans of our souls,
our hearts
and our minds
the names that have been branded on us
are heavy enough with hate to break spines
but as long as I can be referred to as a "top dolla hoe"
then everything is fine
and no I wont mind
if this beast music corrupts my 14 year old little sister in to thinking that her breast should be bigger,
her ass should be thicker,
and she should work on her flexibility
to please the visual needs of these men who's eyes still find the need to breast feed
and hug momma's thighs,
And no I wont mind
if this music brainwashes young men into thinking that every time they see me
they should be viewing my anatomy
rather than looking at me
and automatically classify me
as "a very freaky girl"
pardon my French…
but Baiser Cela
I will not allow this beast music to
feed my insecurities
so I have low self esteem
that makes it easier for these so called artists to use me,
abuse me spiritually
and treat me worse than the dirt they walk on,
so excuse me if I seem a little withdrawn
from this crap
that has innovatively been labeled "rap"
cause last time I checked
I could have sworn it stood for "rhythm and poetry"
not "rape and pornography"
and though my name is not Maya,
I am a woman…
phenomenally,
so name you spit at me
can hurt me
or change my views of me
cause some one wise once told me
that it ain't what you called
but what you answer to…
so I will answer to respect
and nothing less
you will step to me correctly
or you just might get cut with the razor God blessed me with for a tongue,
Step Back
cause I am not the one you can come to
with these supposed "game"
you picked up from these so called artist
that pollute our air waves with the sounds
of our dying dynasty…
