I got a visit from someone yesterday. An old lover who had been calling me lately to tell me that she was on her way to see me. She had been calling everyday for the last two weeks but she never showed up. Finally, she came yesterday. She came and she came, and, finally, she came. I was so involved in our lovemaking that I never heard her screaming over and over again that she loved me and she belonged to me. The fact that she kept standing me up angered me. That anger strengthened my thrusts. I loved her. She didn't deserve that satisfaction. It was an old love, but the lovin' was new.

Hey Cynique. The Explanation deals directly with the poem I wrote yesterday...yes, you assume correctly. She was what guys refer to as a 'red-bone'. I guess you could call her white chocolate.(heh-heh)

I figured your explanation was in regard to your poem, Lambd. Note #2: never explain a poem. It should be left up to the reader's interpretation. It's more intriguing that way.

I agree. I was going to explain the poem in depth at first then I thought better of it and vaguely explained it on a different thread so that it could stand on its own. Follow?

Okay Lamb, now, since you called me sarge I think it fitting that I share something with you. Now I am by no means runnin' nothing up in here. But as a reader, and this is my personal opinion, or should I say, my personal concern, I have to ask you if you think "that post was apropriate for this audience, this open board. Again, I have to say that in my personal opinion,I wonder if you've ever seen someone post about their......sexual conquests? Think about it brotha, are you being disrespectful? I think little inuendos can sometimes pass under the bar but I doubt you would want your daughter or anyones underage daughter reading about someones bedroom details. Some might have thought it was.......

Look, you know I try to stay off the political fence and it's not you, and I'm not trying to check you but without the skills to say it any other way, I didn't think that was right man. You can probably tell me some mistakes I've made with my posts and we can deal with that but come on LAMBD, I thought you was a better man than that.......no, I know you are. I don't know why you would choose to disrespect the women up in here like that.

I know where to go to read my ooouuu's and aaaaa's and I don't think this is it. You cool with me Lambd, and I hope we remain that way, I really do.

Lambd,
Yeah, I gottah co-sign with Bros Carey here. I think you would have been cool if you had expressed this via a poem without being too specific/personal.

Still, do your thang, playah. Just be a little mo' clever with it. You obviously got the kind of skillz to roll like that. So it should be no problema. K?


However, if you've willing to share some pictures, VHS' or DVD's, well then...that's different. HEHE!

A little too much information. But we all mess up every once in a while. Sometimes talking on the board seems like talking to friends on the phone, but we are in public.....

damn. I'm sorry. I thought it read like a poem. I guess y'all just too clever for me. It won't happen again. I appreciate the intelligent ones here. You did the right thing. Back in the day we used to post like that. I guess this forum has turned into something else. I really thought it read like a poem. I must be slippin'. I got a different crowd. Tell Thumper or somebody to take it off. I aint mad. I was trying to outlet some shit I shouldn't have. Guess I better dig a hole to yell into. Carey you a good Sarge for catching that. You got plenty of back up too. Abm--check your mailbox.

I too thought that your "explanation" read like a poem and appreciated that you expressed it as such. I was not offended.

Lambd,
The poem was, at least to me, fine. It was your "Explanation" here that was a bit risque.

But hey, really, look who's talking. Right? HAHA!

Just for the record, Lambd, I was also "critiquing" the explanation you referred to as a "poem." (I might add that I find it weird that you would feel a need to share your intimate personal life with the board.)

A_woman, I am not so sensitive that I would stop posting. Thanks for the encouragement though.

Abm> I thought that you, of all people, would know to take what I say with a grain of salt. Almost everything I post here has a bit of a sarcastic twist...(something I picked up from my AALBC mentor who shall remain nameless but his first two initials are A.b.) By the way, keep your eye on your mailbox for that 'Explanation' DVD...but don't tell anyone. It may be a bit risque.

Chris :-).




Lamdchop: Man you handled that like a man, I like that in ya. Yeah, someone said it,....the explaination.

Sometimes a sincere "okay" is all that is required.

You got skills brotha. If I can only find a way to mix you and ABM and a few other in a pot and pour it, I'd create a monster, a real life man's man, with looks to die for.

Hey, this is a little different but if you could put your best quality into the mix, what would that be. Really, you know yourself better than anyone, so search and find that of which you would consider your best attribute (sp?).

Others, feel free to join in. I'll throw mine in but I'll wait and see how others respond. Let's put a little spin on it too. What quality of other posters would you like to see added. This is the time everyone can do a little brown nosin' on the QT :-).

Lambd, you're up first, then choose a couple of others and on down the line. Hey, don't forget we need a little toughness in this.......superperson :-). Are you game?

I don't know if I have a 'best' quality. I do, however try to avoid controversy(most of the time) buy choosing my words carefully. I took a few classes on 'tone', so, even when I have to speak in front of a group I really try and use those skills to make sure people know exactly what is meant when I speak. It's a lot trickier when you write, though...You know asking this question to Abm is dangerous. Chrishayden is going to say something that none of us understand, and Cynique and Yukio will use words that we will all have to break out the Webster #12 for. Of course A_woman will just start a damn riot. What about you, Sarge? And don't ask Thumper or Brian Egeston! We will be here for a month trying to cut into their dialogue!

I would bring my editorial skills to the mix and pare down some of these essays that pass for answers during discussions. LOL. As for what refreshing uniquenss certain other regulars bring to the table, in addition to their articulate intelligence, I would mention: Carey - homespun mother wit; Chris - good background information; Abm - hilarious sexual innuendo; a_womon - hip hop flavah;Yukio - in-depth perceptiveness; Lambd - poetic versatility; Thumper - great book recommendations; Kola - drama and chaos. (which I love!) Of course, there are so many other posters who distinguish themselves that I could go on and on but, instead, I'll just say if anybody thinks black folks ain't "on the case," they should check out Thumper's corner!

Great Post Cynique! That's what I'm talkin' about.

Okay, A- Womon, lets here from you, your name comes up quit often around here, you must be adding something to the mix. What do you love about yourself......maybe I should say, what qualities do others not know...oh shoot, let me try that again, ahhh.....tell us what you would add to the pie.......Don't ABM, Don't *smile*.

But maybe we should also drop the name of a book that you think others should read too. This is a book site.

Oh before I forget, I want to express my opinion about still having to register (where did that come from). Just thought I'd throw that out there for a reminder to myself.

I'm sorry I didn't answer you--I missed your post. But you can rest assured that it would have been the same one I gave Carey.

I am a native of the Midwest, and we are wont to make outbursts of moral outrage from time to time. Pay it no mind.
