The Evolution of Soul, A Journey Through Poetry is Now Available in The Blacktopia Media Store

The Evolution of Soul: A Journey Through Poetry is now available in The Blacktopia Media Store!

Check out the book Evolution 

https://www.createspace.com/5651311 

Below is a blurb for my book: 

Toney’s style is a blend of Free-versing, Slam, Spoken word, and Traditional. In his first collection, Author Toney’s book “Evolution of Soul: A Journey Through Poetry”, his verses splatter a metaphoric mind pictorial, painting visuals of love, consciousness, sensuality, darkness, inspiration, and more. Indeed, there are parallel subjects from similar poets, both historical and modern day; however, Toney’s perspectives are inked in an assortment of American vernaculars depicting his own life’s journey.  

Also swayed by many musical genres, the quintessence of his lyrical pen is filled with vibrant soulfulness. Author Justin Toney’s expressions are multi-layered and personable. His artistic use of both figurative language and wordplay will stimulate your inner passion. You will detect within his poetry an introduction to his cleverness, while he conveys superlative imagery. Toney believes “poetry connects to one’s soul”, and I too agree. "Evolution of Soul" is not only a collective of poems, but also an impressionable page turner.

#WedNightPoetry: "Don't Lie to Me" by Adrienne Charleston

This is a poem I recently wrote with someone in mind. I let him read it and he said he was flattered and scared at the same time. Lol. Enjoy. 

Don't lie to me -
I don't ask many questions
I don't make demands
All I ever wanted
Was for you to be my man
The more I observe
The more I see
I just have 1 request
Don't lie to me
I like when we are together
You make my soul feel at ease
You are a comfortable place
And I don't have to say please
But if you can't be truthful
Then just leave me be
You can lie to girls
Just don't lie to me

By Adrienne Charleston

It's Whatever: What I Learned From Being The Other Woman (by Meichell T.)

It's Whatever by Meichell T.

What I Learned From Being The Other Women

Before, we get out of the gate let me start by saying this isn't a post about Why men cheat or Why women deal with married or taken men?  There are a thousand different reasons and scenarios as to why people cheat, get cheated on, and become the other women.  Is it right, no. But, it happens.  Also, let me say that you could be doing everything right and still get cheated on.  If a man wants to cheat he will point blank period. 

  Often, we as women wonder what the other women has on them, why he down graded, or why he took the risk of loosing you?  Again, there are too many reasons to count. It could be as simple as new p***y is better then old p***y? Who knows, I'm not a man, but, having ventured into the point of no return before, and speaking to a lot of my male friends, a few common statements seem to reoccur.

  Let me ask you ladies, When's the last time you were the other women?  I don't mean in the literal sense (unless you have, no judgement), but figuratively?  Would you want to (rhymes with tuck) yourself?  When was the last time your man saw you like the chick that used to get it on in the movie theater, in the back seat of the car, and not like the respectable mother of his child?

  What does the other women have over you, you ask? Excitement, no drama, a great imagination, time, she listens, and a f**k me now attitude( she can because she doesn't have to deal with him 24/7 lol) What Men Can Do To Make Their Women Want To Jump Their Bones will be my next article. Stay tuned!

 Now, with all that being said it doesn't mean that she has more to offer him then you. It just means that in the little time that he does give her, she provides a fantasy.
A fantasy that you can re-create by just giving a little more time, being a little more creative, and being the other women your man fantasizes about. Hell, wear a wig, put on those knock off Red Bottoms, do some roll playing, and let him know where home really is.  Good luck!
