Poetry is Orgasmic...

I went to a "paint the mic" event last night, where artists wrote a poem about a piece of art that was up on the wall. Can I just say that spoken word is orgasmic? As in, better than sex, better than your mothers best made dish, better than a kiss from the person that gives you butterflies, better than a summer memory... because spoken word can paint all of that and more in someones imagination.

I went with one of the most amazing females that I've come to have a friendship with...(Dt!). Me and her were just snapping fingers, screaming preach! haha. I swear, we are cheap dates. Take us to a room where people want to share thoughts and we are half way in love with you. STIMULATE OUR MINDS. Alright, I'll share some of my fav quotes (yes, I'm a dork and I brought my journal with me).

"You are perfection, so claim it, created by God... all that exists is the all that exists"

"metaphysical relation to nature"

"we are all reflections of self"

"WHEN I'M BREAKING DOWN IN FRONT OF YOU, I'M REALLY REGAINING MY SANITY"

"Taking my mind into meditation just so I can hear my heart beat"

"Trusting ourselves to be OKAY with love"

"The universe is probability, and probability is possibility...that's what we are, possibilities"

"TRUE POETS ARE PROPHETS"

Mi gente. People think that words are just words, but they are so much more. Which is why you are only worth as much as your word, and if in my eyes your words carry no weight, then your value is less than the dollar.

Ended the night @ a spot that I wont even talk about because it felt like I should have been there light years ago. It looked like a place that myths are made of... I'm not even fkin with you. Ah my life. My life. MY LIFE.

p.s. there was a girl rocking a tank top that said " Be mindful even when your mind is full" by de la vega. I may not know him, but I love his sht. I swear I planned on seducing the chick and taking the tank top, someway, somehow. Then I realized it would be easier to just buy one. haha.
