Only A Black Woman Can.........

[DoggyStyle82]

This was emailed to me and I thought that I would post it.


Only A Black Woman..........

Can cuss a man out, make him feel life isht then,
make love to him the same night and make him
feel like a king.

Only A Black Woman..........

Wears a burgundy french roll, 3 inch
heels and a split up her thigh to work
and make it look professional.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can wear the hell out of spandex.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can raise a doctor, a world class athlete
and an A+ student in a environment deemed
by society as dysfunctional, broken, underprivileged
and disenfranchised.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can heat a whole house in the winter
without the help of the gas company.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can go from the boardroom to the block
and "keep it real" in both places.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can slap the taste out of your mouth.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can put a Black man and his non-black date
on pins and needles just by walking into
the room.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can live below poverty level and yet set
fashion trends.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can fight two struggles everyday and make
it look easy.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can make a child happy on Christmas Day
even if he didn't get a damn thing.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can be admired and fantasized about by
men of other races and know that when
she does cross over, it's done out of
sincerity, not a political move.

Only A Black Woman

Can be 75 years old and look 45.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can make other women want to pay plastic
surgeons top $$$ for physical features she
was already born with.

Only A Black Woman..........

Can be the mother of a civilization....

That one's my FAVORITE!!! Don't ya just love how the sell-out tries to avoid eye-contact with the Sista, and how his non-Black date's intimidation and insecurity takes over her face? All that, and the Sista never even opened her mouth!

And I'm Out!

PS: Sorry if my use of the term "sell-out" offends anyone. Doggy, if you think it's inappropriate, please edit accordingly. But, you KNOW how I feel about this issue...

I love this poem...it's sooo true!

[earthchild1913]

You have no idea how bad I needed that poem. So true! MAke sure you never forget it too. Thanks!!!!

I received this in my email too. I still love it. I also love, "The Black Man's Apology to the Black Woman." It is soooooo deep! Did anyone else receive that poem? If not, I can either email it to you or post it here.

"I APOLOGIZE"

I apologize black woman for all the seen and unseen lies,
For the heartache and pain that brought tears in your eyes.

I apologize black woman for not being true from the start,
for running away from you, leaving a hole in your heart.

For ignoring your feelings and pushing them aside,
because I was too arrogant and pumped up with pride.

I apologize for making promises that I couldn't keep,
for building a foundation based on treachery and deceit.

Being selfish and inconsiderate, I did what I wanted to do,
making costly decisions without thinking of you.

I apologize for not holding you through restless nights and stormy days,
for my immature thoughts and my foolish ways.

Instead of carrying your love with me, I just threw it on the shelf,
after we made love I turned away, only thinking of myself.

You cried your heart for me, while I was out running wild and loose,
I destroyed the essence of your love with physical, mental, and emotional abuse.

I gave you hell black woman by giving up when times got rough,
I didn't slap you, I pushed you, I neglected you-- even that's bad enough!

Now I see why you build a wall around you, because it is me you despise,
but that's the price that I have to pay for all the times I wore a disguise.


I pray to GOD that one day you will realize,
That I LOVE YOU BLACK WOMAN, AND I APOLOGIZE.

Now both of those poems are equally beautiful! Are we starting a poetry forum!

I love both of those poems. I'm newly inspired
