MANnequin
When you keep it all on m u t e
How will I know the right way to love you
Usually the Queen of figurin out
Breaking down a man is no work out
But I have no clue
How to get through to you
I wanna hit you just to see if you cry
I keep knockin' on wood, hopin there's a real boy inside
But you're not a man
You're just a Mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
But you're not a man
I wish I could just turn you on
Put a battery in and make you talk
Even pull a string for you to say anything
But with you there is no guarantee
Only e x p i r e d w a r r a n t y
A bunch of b r o k e n parts
And I can't seem to find your heart
I'm such a foolI'm such a fool
I'm such a fool
This one's outta my hands
I can't put you back together again
Cause you're not a man
You're just a Mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
But you're not a man
You're just a, a toy
Could you ever be a real, real boy
And understand
But you're not a man
If the past is the problem
Our future can solve them baby
I could bring you life if you let me inside baby
This will hurt but in the end
You'll be a man
Cause you're not a man
You're just a Mannequin
I wish you could feel that my love is real
You're just a, a toy
Could you ever be a real, real boy
And understand
But you're not a man

How I Feel About MEN Right Now
10 Things GROWN ASS MOTHER FUCKING MEN DO or DON'T DO:
(in no particular order)
1. You don't share a car with your homie, your brother, or your cousin. I shouldn't have to wait for your brother to return from one of his junt's houses to go to the movies.
2. You don't require approval or opinions from your homies, brother/s, cousins, MAMA, etc. I'm not dating them, I'm dating you. WTF?!?! You want me to fuck them too?? Then they can give you some REAL feedback.
3. You do let by-gones be by-gones. No one is perfect. Mistakes will be made. Let it go. Don't bring it up everytime some shit goes down. And if you can't let it go, then BE GONE.
4. You don't turn a situation or argument around. Don't flip the script. If you've done wrong, be wrong, admit it, and we will deal with it. Don't turn some shit on me so that now YOU are the mad one. That's some bullshit.
5. You do keep OUR business to YOURSELF. What we do or don't do is OUR business. Why would you tell your peoples?
6. You don't tell your girlfriend bad things about your ex and then throw her in the current girl's face once you breakup. If you tell me how WACK a chick is, don't try to brag once ya'll get back together ONLY bc we broke up! Wtf?!?! LMBAO!!!! If you tell me how crazy this bitch is and how bad the sex is/was, I'm only going to laugh at you when you get back together with the bitch. Because I know you're with a crazy broad and your sex life suckssssss.
Note: this rule is ESPECIALLY important when the ex in question is UGLY in the first place!!!!
7. You don't constantly talk about money, even if you got it. If you have a nice condo with a descent view (thats now obstructed btw) don't tell say some dumb shit like "I paid a lot for this view"....ask me if I care! Don't tell me how much your shoes cost...or who you know and how you know them. When you have money, people can tell...no need to flaunt...because when you flaunt you make me think you haven't had it for too long and you're suuuuper excited about it! LMAO! Or you have something to prove or even worse: something to make up for!
8. You do speak if you see an ex out in public. Especially if you broke up on some bullshit type stuff. Say hello. It won't kill you. It actually makes you look mad mature. Because if you walk by attempting to act like you don't see her, you look stupid. Bitch, you know you saw me! LOL!
9. You do buy her things just because! ((flowers not included...I don't like flowers)). Buy me a pair of shoes you thought I'd like just because it's Friday. Take me out to dinner just because the sex was good yesterday. If you go out of town and you're shopping and you see something that makes you think "Damn, Mo would love this!"....motherfucker, cop that shit!
10. You do realize that your relationship is a priority and comes before MOST things. Life was different before this girl entered your life. Things are bound to change and MUST change. Let them. If you're not putting your relationship @ the top of your list, then you're not putting 100& into it...and when you're putting less than 100% into it, it's bound to fail. If your boys wanna go to the club or play video games but your girl wants to go to dinner or bowling, ditch your boys. There will be other times. Pick and choose your battles.

Givin him that famous "Boy if you dont say sorry" look mama's give us. Regardless of the motivation, I'm not buyin it and I still think he's stupid. Womp Womp Womp Soulja Boy!

PhD in HiM
I'd studied

focused on
fucked
sucked
cried over

gotten up and been resilient about
not given up on
believed in

love
believed in
so believed in
ignored my friends advice about
drank over
been sick over
worked out over
collapsed over
smiled over
laughed with
ended things with
began things with
talked about
talked about
did I mention talked about?
I'd have a PhD in him.
By now, I could have had a PhD
in Philosophy,
Internal Medicine,
Middle Eastern Studies,
Stem Cell Research.
But no,
I have a PhD in Him.
Funny how he brings me no income,
no pension,
no future,
no future,
did I mention no future?
No awards ceremonies,
no diplomas in frames,
no sabbatical,
no maternity leave,
no maternity leave,
did I mention no maternity leave?
Funny how he brings me no roth IRA funds,
no medical plan including dental,
no cap with a tassel to hooray in the air,
no well earned celebration,
no sense of security,
no sense of security.
Funny how he became my career,
yes, he became my career,
my daily ambition,
my homework,
my goals,
my to-do list today reads:
him, him, him, him, him.
And so don't ask me what I did this year
I didn't write any plays or books
I didn't so some responsible shit like pursue a back-up career.
I was fully employed in the furry of him
the fury,
the passion,
clocking in 80 hour weeks
while he lounged on false disability
wish I'd hired a scout to bust his scheeming ass,
but see I was too busy working on my degree,
a PhD in HiM.
Graduated valedictorian at the tippy top of my class
magna cum fucking laude
and a waste of fucking time.
hours upon hours
spent figuring out his equations
riddles
word problems
crossword puzzles
treatments
cracking his codes
philosophising his constitution
over Moet,
wine,
vodka,
vodka,
oh did I mention vodka?
By now I could've been a brain surgeon,
a novelist,
a Pulitzer Prize winner,
my published books overflowing my fireplace crackling den,
I could have fed undernourished children,
fought terrorism,
volunteered at soup kitchens,
FUCK THAT!
BUILT SOUP KITCHENS!
Had a beautiful baby that's now ripe for walking,
But instead,
I have a PhD in HiM.
Wasted hours in the library of man.
My ambition like an inverse fraction became
HiM OVER me
like the goddamn Do Fund I was
ready, willing, and able
sweeping garbage
wearing my incarcerated slogan with pride
because I was earning my double-major in
his BuLLSHiT
with a minor in
my settling for less
Quiz me,
I know him better than he knows himself
I'm that matriculated doctrate hoe
paid full tuituon at It's All About HiM University.
Ladies, have you visited?
See they pat you down at the gate for self-esteem
and your core syllabus is a well-crafted list of cockamamy lies,
study groups with the girls is in the dungeon dorms
with a clear view of your man relaxing under a shady oak.
STUDY HARD, BITCHES!
You got a paper due Monday morning
titled "My Man Wants To Be Treated Like a Man, But Won't Act Like One."
who's hiring?
any other fools wanna sit in my lecture hall?
hands please!
See now, I'm licensed to teach and preach
sparing my pride
in hopes some other women might ready my dissertation.
See, I have a PhD in HiM,
and my transcript is rolling off my wicked tongue.
I was a diligent student
and brought apples to teachers
sharpened pencils to every class.
Not sure of how my most difficult degree might serve me
but think one day I'll thank him
for reminding me how
FIERCE a PUPiL of LiFE
I really AM.
this TYPE LOVE
And shit-
I wanted to see how far I could get without calling you and I barely made it out of my garage.
See, I want a love that makes me wait until she falls asleep then wonder if she's dreaming about us being in love TYPE LOVE or who loves the other more or what she's doing at this exact moment or slow dancing in the middle of our apartment to the music of our hearts.
Closing my eyes and imagining how a love so good could just hurt so much when she's not there and shit, I love not knowing where this love is headed TYPE LOVE.
And check this-
I wanna place those little post-it notes all around the house so she never forgets how much I love her TYPE LOVE,Then not have enough ink in my pen to write all the love TYPE LOVE and hope I make her feel as good as she makes me feel.And I wanna deal with my friends making fun of me the way I made fun of them when they went through the same kind of love TYPE LOVE.
The only difference is this is one of those real love TYPE LOVES.
And just like in high school I wanna spend hours on the phone not saying shit and then fall asleep and then wake up with her right next to me and smell her all up in my covers TYPE LOVE.
And I wanna try counting the ways I love her then lose count in the middle just so I could start all over again.
And I wanna celebrate one of those one-month anniversaries even though they ain't really anniversaries but doing it just 'cause it makes her happy TYPE LOVE.
And check this-
I wanna fall in love with the melody the phone plays when our numbers dial in TYPE LOVE and talk to you until I lose my breath, she leaves me breathless, but with the expanding of my lungs I inhale all of her back into me.
I want a love that makes me need to change my cell phone calling plan to something that allows me to talk to her longer 'cause in all honesty, I want to avoid one of them high cell phone bill TYPE LOVES. And I don't want a love that makes me regret how small my hands are. I mean the lines on my palms don't give me enough time to love you as long as I'd like to TYPE LOVE. And I want a love that makes me st-st-st-stutter just thinking about how strong this love is TYPE LOVE and I want a love that makes me want to cut off all my hair. Well maybe not all of the hair, maybe like I'd cut the split ends and trim my mustache but it would still be a symbol of how strong my love is for her.
I kind of feel comfortable now so I even be fantasize about walking out on a green light just dying to get hit by a car just so I could lose my memory, get transported to some third world country just to get treated and somehow meet up again with you so I could fall in love with you in a different language and see if it still feels the same TYPE LOVE.
I want a love that's as unexplainable as she is.

Have You Ever Made Love To A WEERDO???
enjoy....
-i hate fish, but love sushi.
-don't really eat chicken, but cook it for boys.
-i hate the task/chore of applying makeup, but i am fucking bomb at doing it and have a hard time walking out of the house after 5 pm without it. (12 pm if it's a pretty day outside).
-i loooove being loved, but go to drastic measures to push guys away when i feel they actually like me.
-last time i checked, i have been a female since day 1, but i cannot stand females. i think they are probably the most disgusting, petty, wasteful species on earth.
-i love a man that wears a good cologne, but don't like sleeping next to a man wearing any.
-i can't stand when people do not keep their shoe boxes.
-i'm a libra. i constantly wonder what like would be like as another sign. would things be different?
-i can't stand my ex high school/college boyfriend, but i would fuck ANYONE up for him. so serious.
-i have long hair, but i am hell bent on wearing weaves for the dramatic effect...plus it gives me SOMETHING to relate to my african-american female "counterparts" to.
-i love a guy that can rock a cap, but i don't like when they wear them when it's just us...only in social situations.
-i've always been strangely freaked out by twins and redheads. i don't think anything is natural about either.
-i'm on a mission to create some way for condoms to have a better odor/taste, without you having to be a freak/pervert and buy the "flavored" condoms. so wack.
-i love sex toys, have a grand collection of them....NEVER use them. no one is worth the extra effort.
-i strongly dislike fat people, but kinda wanna see what it's like to date or screw a chubby guy.
-i become strangely intolerable of guys once i realize how sexually unexperienced they are. when a guy says "oh i've never done that before" or "wow, that was cool"...i get pissed. like wanna roll over, go to sleep, and leave as soon as i wake up pissed.
-i hate girls with tattoos, but i have 5 and counting.
-i believe girls should always wear a stiletto, but i have a pretty nice sneaker collection.
-i like to call myself a mindfull person of money, but i will drop a grip and a half on a nice pair of shades, tattoos, shoes, and miscelleaneous gifts for my man (when i have one).
-i've always been a believer that a girl should never date a dude younger than herself, yet the ONE younger guy i dated has been my fave.
-i've always had athlete boyfriends, but my fave was NOT an athlete...and that fact always annoyed me.
ok i'm done...
i'm weird...
whatever.
FORGiVENESS.....
Trust Me.
Believe Me.
Call if you need Me.
But most of all, FORGIVE ME.

Yung Berg Needs To Have A Seat...For Real For Real!
Soooo I'm already not a fan of Yung Berg's dumbass in the first place...I can REALLY do without him. But this dude has really gone off the deep end. The "rapper" who has previously made negative statements about darker skinned women is slated to have his own reality dating show...and get this, he and his management team are attempting to cast ALL DARK SKINNED GIRLS!!! ((does he REALLY think this makes up for him referring to darker women as "dark butts" and saying he doesn't find them attractive??)) His management team has reached out to the casting company in charge of casting ladies for the show requesting darker skinned girls in an attempt to "find exceptional stand out beautiful dark skin/brown skin women to showcase all races of beauty on the show”. He's really interested in casting video model Jeri J. because he claims she is "pretty for a dark skin shorty".

You Shoulda known he would get his OWN post!!!!
On a day when you are supposed to give thanks for things and people that you have in your life, I find myself giving thanks for someone who I no longer have in my life physically. They say some people come in your life to teach things and their stay may only be seasonal. Well, David taught me that things don't have to be perfect, but they can still be beautiful. I miss him everyday and he holds a place in my heart that no one can ever touch. I know he keeps me safe and sane...and because of him I am forever blessed.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY BiiiTCHESSSS!
10. Having my little brother in the A ( a freshman at MOREHOUSE COLLEGE)!!!
9. The body of a GODDESS....
8. Stilettos...because everyone knows they can MAKE any outfit...PLUS every boy loves a high heel (with or WITHOUT clothes to match).
7. Sooo many SUSHI restaurants in ATL and So many friends that will eat sushi with me on any given day at any given time.
6. Lips that keep the boys comin....
5. My new condo.
4. AMAZING PARENTS WHO PAY FOR MY NEW CONDO!!!!!!!!!!!!
3. Every single BOY that has taught me any lessons on life&&love.
2. Rainy days that allow you to stay inside with the one you care about and get to know them even better.
1. An AMAZING GOD who proves to me over and over that he is in control in my life and he has so many wonderful things in store for me. Thank you Lord for showing me that no matter how hard it might seem, you'll never bring me to it not to bring me through it. *Weeping may endure for a night, but joy commeth in the morning.*

Barneys x ALiFE
How Could You Be So *heartLESS*
First of all, if you haven't copped the Kanye West "808s && Heartbreak" album, you're slackin. But that's neither here NOR there. I'm sure you have heard the song "Heartless". ((It's that shit)). Here's what I've realized...that crazy mean heartless bitch he's talking about.....
THAT'S ME!!!!!!!!
I AM that heartless girl he is talking about. You see, I have spent my life reeling these guys in (some good, some bad). I reel them in on hope, dreams, sex appeal, and "love"&&affection ONLY to flip the script on them when they least expect it. One day I am all over this guy on some crazy in love type shit...the next day I'm screaming and yelling, damn near making a list of everything wrong with them. The funny part is, I do all of this nonsense, only to attempt to reel them in again. A few of them aren't havin it...a few of them are. I send these guys on a crazy rollercoaster ride only to be standing there when the ride is over with this "baby, why aren't we talking" or "baby, why are you mad at me" look on my face. This is a problem.
Now, THIS is what REALLY gets to me...I don't play these childish games with the bad boys...you know those boys I really shouldn't be dating in the first place...the ones that treat me wrong and all that shit. NOPE! They get the ROYAL treatment. It's the GOOD guys, who get sent for a tailspin. I feel bad for the poor guys...because they meet the nice, chill, super down Morgan. The one that makes them be like "yeah, she's that chick." But, by the time it's all said and done, they are asking themselves "why did I ever fuck with her?" And this just shouldn't be. However, it is the story of my life. Today...that shit changes.
You're probably wondering what started this whole rant (mother fucker, like I told you earlier, it was YEEZY). DAMN! Pay attention! But it was ALSO this really cool guy that I did in. I'll give you a QUICK synopsis: met him @ his job...sooooo super cute....nicest guy I've met in awhile...we clicked like instantly (call is same sense of humor or sarcasm if you will)...started kickin it...texting all the time...i ADORED him...BUT he was one of those guys who knows EVERY POSSIBLE GIRL in the city of ATL...and that annoyed me...because not only did he know them, but he would speak to them IN FRONT OF ME...so that triggered something in me...I went into *heartless* mode...but not only that, I went into *PARANOID* mode as well (Kanye was on some REAL TALK on this album)...I was constantly asking "why are you talking to this girl, that girl"...it became something I didn't want it to become...I became THAT girl...and that's not even me...so of course I turned it on him on some real ruthless type stuff...just being a bitch...he wasn't having it...so of course I then resorted to the pathetic girl role(which all of my ladies know is really PANIC mode)...he was DEFINITELY not having that...kinda givin me the whole "you dug yourself this hole..." shit....words were exchanged, things were said, a scene was caused at his workplace (lmao..ok thats not even funny)...but long story short, it was OVER.
Now looking back on it, I realize that he wasn't trying to disrespect me or hurt me...he's just honestly a NICE guy who has mad friends (girls and guys). Period. And at the end of the day I'm left feeling stupid because hands down, he is the COOLEST guy I have met since moving to Atlanta. No questions. Ladies: you know how you have dinner with your girls and all you say is "i just wanna meet a cool guy who makes me laugh, is not on some bullshit, calls me when he says he will call, etc". Well, I had him. And uhhh yea....so that's all bad.
I'm someone who is honest with myself...I won't kid myself and ever say that fence can be mended although I really hope it can be one day. But, I will say that it's one of the biggest learning experiences if I ever had and if I needed to lose an amazing guy, then I can find peace and contentment in that. You live, you learn, and you grow...sometimes at the expense of others and sometimes at your OWN expense.
To that guy: You are the SHIT. Period. Don't ever let ME or ANYONE else tell you otherwise. I was an idiot and some little kid type stuff. Real talk. I can admit that. From every heartfelt part of my being, I APOLOGIZE to you for the madness. NONE of that was on YOU. It was all ME and my insecurities. You did nothing but make me laugh and make me Chef Boyardee at 4 am. :) You are the best and I really hope you find hapiness no matter who it is with or who it is without. You're a little on the weird side (with your random sarcastic comments, obsession with fashion and music, and slight alcoholism)...but I guess that makes you even more amazing. But yea, I apologize to you because that person was not even ME. ("This fashion show sucks, let's go home and makeout...I just think we should go home and make out") LMAO...Oh and as for that "other half" of yours...he's the shit too...DEFINiTELY an alcoholic, but the shit nonetheless. I truly adore the both of you.
To my readers: PLEASE do NOT think these random, personal rants will happen frequently. Because they will NOT! I just had to get this off of my chest and have a diary moment. Most of that probably didn't even make sense to you anyways...and it wasn't supposed to. Now, back to the fashion, gossip, bullshit, and everything else!
