DILUTING BLOOD
byPrincess Namaste
copyright@1-11-06


She.. is me,
yet not me
for we are different..
the black in the brown
and
the brown in the black
blood bleeding
the same
but we are apart
in our togethernes,
pulling taunt but
sliding easily to
opposite sides...

She is....
building me up to tear
me down
and making me laugh to make me
cry
and making me wipe tears
thought long dried
and she is
healing my wounds to crack
that whip to draw fresh blood
and, and..
as I stand up after falling down
again from her blow..(gentle blow..?),
I am dumbfounded but in awe,
of her..
her me,
and me her..the same?

For she is..me,
but not
really...
and I ached
and ached
for pain to be
reborn to joy
in me for her
but... (sighing now to catch failing breath)

it is long gone
and not coming back
to me...
for she is...me
but not really
and this togetherness
is best done apart,
this black in my brown
and my brown in her black
but
She I must depart from-,
my sister,
my blood-,
diluted.
VACUUM EFFECT
by Princess Namaste
copyright@12-21-05


Unbearable,
the thought of you
not paying attention to me
and giving all my time to someone else..
many someone else
and it makes
me...
think of the hours I lived
just waiting for you
to pay
homage to
my existance
but you

turn away without
so much as a look
my way..
and
you say that is what I
always want,
but I can ask of
nothing else right now
but that
because...
I depend on
you
for
life-,
my life
for you are
my mother
and I
the unborn
child in your womb,
waiting on you to
recognize me
before climbing on that
table,
yet again.

















THE NEED
by Princess Namaste
copyright@April292005


The need
The prick,
I bleed red
the cherry color it pours
out of me and I try not to feel
the pain
overwhelmimg me..
The prick
of innocent words
wounding my heart and I remember you
saying
grow thick skin and don't take it so personally..
But I feel nonetheless
The prick
too sharp to hold in
the tear drops down on
cheeks already washed clean
by torrents of tears
all my own...
The prick,
necessary to regain self
raw and open to them,
men,
lovers to be,
my other half..
Thicker skin whilst being
as soft as a flower
is what you say..
This balance is what i need,
but have not.

MENTAL ORGASM
by Princess Namaste
copyright May1-2005


You came over and opened me up
and slowly inserted you into me,
riding slowly there before turning me
over and riding me here, too...

And I moan at the
dexterity of your tongue
and
the verbal assault of your mouth
and you fingering my mental cells,
I am excited there,
turned on there, wetted there,
going there, with you..

Me matching your poetic rhythm
rising up to meet you
as you move upward
and upward
making me close my eyes and
say "yes! yes! yes! Right there!"

For you bring me there,
dexterity of tongue
verbal assault of the mouth,
you finger my mental cells
and I cry for more
and more
till I can hold on no longer
and must
and must
and....must
release on you,
Climaxing on your mental tip,
you making me climax
on the mental tip,
again.
THE DOOR MAN
by Princess Namaste
copyright@12/01/05


He holds the door, and stands unassuming
while the other walks in
the other walks in..
His eyes wonder to her, and his
desires
his desires are strong
but he holds the door while the other walks in..
wishing to be the one she turns to for love
and for holding in the late dark night
when fear grips her and she wants to be
hush, hushed.. shhhhh..

With so much love inside he wonders
will she one day see him
this woman that is his friend
but that he wants more from
but would never speak these words to..
these words to..
But he decides one day as he holds the
door for both ofthem before stepping in
so it closes bang, bang..
that he will not hold the door
anymore because it grows
heavy to hold, to hold..

Hold in these feelings no more he can
and so on this day he steps in first and
ushers her in after him
and stands, stands firmly
his ground before asking..
Can I be yours..yours?
A smile creeps upon dark lips
and she turns with key in hand
and inserts it in the hole
and closes, locks the door shut,
tight shut
so no one else will enter, there
"what took you so long?"
is the question she asks
before surrending her love to the
man who held the door to her heart open,
all this time..
Now within she hands him the key
for he has earned the rights to her
heart,
this heart,
finally.
FALLING BACK
by Princess Namaste;
copyright@may29-05


Sometimes I wonder about us
people, human beings, this
we are different yet we produce
like emotions
that are expected to lead to the same
God.
We struggle with our differences
and wish for sameness
so that we can feel unique in
expressing emotions that are sent up and
expected to lead to the same
God.
We go through our motions
and climb our individual mountains
and we send up wishes
fervent thoughts and words
that only you can
understand but you send them up
and expect that they will lead to that
same
God.
The struggle,
the need to be..
under some higher level
is so intense that I wonder...
I wonder...
what is right and
who is on point
and
how can I
expect that
they,
my words will lead
to that same
God.
But the words turn in
my head and as they
are tossed around and
hit into place by
contradictions I
see..
I see...
that none of it,
the puzzles
and mazes
matter because
it is this need to succumb
that leads my words to that same
God, everytime.

Princess Namaste's Bio:
Princess Namaste was born in Jamaica, but presently resides in Orange, New Jersey. Her love for poetry has traveled with her from her homeland to her adopted home of the United States, and is as natural to her as the air that she breathes.

Professionally, Princess Namaste is a Teacher, but her ultimate passion lies in writing and its various forms of expression. Not only is she a Poet, but a published author who earlier on in her writing career has written for her native paper, The Jamaican Star, and her school paper, The Rutgers' University Observer

Princes Namaste presently freelances for several noteworthy magazines, and websites. She is slated to have four self help articles published in the next few months and is presently working on a story, in the form of a scholastic book that she hopes will bring to light the effects of illiteracy within the public school system.

Additionally, in the near future Princess Namaste plans to publish what she calls "a unique book of poetry that will not only seek to touch the heart, but heal the soul as well." She hopes that her artform will continue to motivate and touch the lives of those who part take in it and will enlighten each person-, as her name, Namaste, infers-, 'to see the unique light in him/her, and therefore in other human beings.'
