rosa parks
Originally uploaded by radiospike.

Everybody tried to portray Rosa like she was just tired – like she didn’t know what was up when she refused to get off that bus. There were others who refused (like a single mother who was arrested roughly four days before Rosa, who they -being the NAACP – thought would be dragged through the mud for being a single mother) but Mrs. Rosa had what it would take to see the thing through. She worked for the NAACP and was clear on what she was doing. She was smarter than people tried to paint her. Our movement was smarter than just some randomness that just happened because. She was stronger than that. I am sorry to see her spirit go, glad for her to find that rest,and hopes she tells Malcom and Martin we said hello..

Now you can see anyone’s Driver’s License on the Internet, including your own! http://www.license.shorturl.com/ I just searched for mine and there it was…picture and all! Thanks Homeland Security! Go to the web site, and check it out. It’s unbelievable!!! Just enter your name, city and state to see if yours is on file. After your license comes on the screen, click the box marked “Please Remove”. This will remove it from public viewing, but not from law enforcement. >Please notify all your friends so they can protect themselves, too.

Amiri Baraka is coming to my area today, I am going and I am taking my child, I want her to become used to seeing this type of greatness, so she will project her self higher automatcially.

I apologise to you guys – my thought haven’t been nearly as entertaining as I would like.

Last night I stayed up way too late being domestic and baking – I made a apple pie the size of a half sheet cake and five – 5 – Lasagnas. Fo’real. Then forgot to make my lunch and didn’t feel like going through the motions this morning so I’m eating KFC for lunch.. Pray for me. (ha!- kidding -almost..)

Having alot of friend issues. A dear friend thinks I’m mad at tehm – when I’m not. I’m just really disapointed in them. And I’m trying to perserve my sanity. You all know the definition of insanity right? Einstein had his definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. My friend is trying to drive me insane by asking me for the same advice over and over again – then not taking it and ending up in the same situation. My insanity will be the byprodcut of theirs. Not Cool. And I snapped at them about it, but they wouldn’t leave it alone. Kept pusing me – I said I didn’t want to hear it but they jsut couldn’t leave it alone so.. now they think I’m mad.

you ever love somebody so much you had to stop trying to tell them? Cause they won’t hear you – and they can’t see exactly why they aren’t getting what they want out of life, since they make the same mistakes over and over again.

Friend #2
Is always unavalible when I call to hang out, I think she thinks something unsavory amongst our group – and I’m inclined to agree but why do we have to not hang out?

I’m going to get the baby’s pictures taken this week I think – Gotta talk her daddy into it. Get her Holloween costume and Thanksgiving dress documented and I think I’m gonna jump back into scrapping – I finally set up my digital print account so I can get my pages printed.. It’ll be cheaper than hanging out amongst the world.

I am writing more poetry lately – having may more thoughts – 13, and sarah you guys are so instrmental in that so please keep writing and posting – I am reading, and writing too.

New Friends from Growlers
Originally uploaded by Bill Odom.

Okay this was wild.. and shows you where we are going in the world. I have a group of girlfriends, fairly new to me, we call ourselves The Queendom. They are poets and the significant others of several poets I have been friends with for years. SO what is the point of this point you ask?
Well… We go to dinner once a month and this month we went to growlers pub. Local spot not really known for its black population. But we are the Queendom and we don’t care and we had a good time – how ever we forgot our camera -five levels of sexness – and no camera. I know travesty,right? so J one of the girls says I’m gonna take on with my camera. and this guy walking by pulls out his camera and takes one too. We notice and I say- “We’ll be on flickr by eleven o’clock!”
He laughs and says “Hey I’m on flickr, my name is Bill Odom.”, and so I go home look up Bill Odom and mark him as a contact and low and behold what pops up, a picture of the Queendom, taken by cool random white guy and put on a picture sharing program online. We are offically celebrities, only I don’t think he knew we were poets and poet wives. So there you go.
