Keep this fall, this rise.
If there is one thing I am keeping today, it’s to be like the iron man. We also know to fall. For how we begin, few know. If we are quiet, pray. Where we come from, no one knows. How far we have worked. That’s for us too. How we are built. Still we will…

Keep who we belong too…
The devil almost as in almost had me that Onyelo reminded me of who we belong to. That and the fact that we have legions. So no weapon formed against us shall prosper. It won’t work. We know who we belong to. They have rosaries. Nothing will succeed. We are protecting our peace…there will be…

Keep having dreams!
Dreams are like the wind. They go on forever. Searching for truth in between stars that know the point of dreams. I have a dream. They remind you of things you can’t touch. Like a gentle breeze, a wishful sigh, a rambling mind, a distant sky. I have a dream The things though you touch,…

If you nurture all the grows within you. Carefully tend to what makes you live this one life you have. The universe itself will marvel at all you become. They will open up for you and gift you the moon and all you need for your journey through life. These days, I am seeing the…

Keep how to free somebody else!
When you are free? When you have seen the deepest valleys and somehow you walked through to the light. When your cup starts to overflow in the sight of your enemies. When they return too like as if you were Joseph and Joseph was you. When you have know how not to be afraid when…

Keep knowing your worth!
There I was, with women like me, reminding me that kindness is to be protected. The depths of your worth too. People are people and there will be doorways that belong to you and them. Some doors will lead you down a path of pain, confuse your worth with pain and leave you feeling confused…

Keep imagining them oooh….
Imagine being among creatures of vanity. Imagine wondering what do they even know. Imagine their blindness to a single blazing star, even though they belong to a pleading sky. Now imagine how they must the feel, the exhilaration of a cup that overflows, of moments they see reaching high to the bare cliff edge. For…

Keep moments where cup overflows!
Not quite 12 noon, when the notion of revisiting old pains strikes me deep. We rise from the office view of Forest Park, and go to another suite we call our own, where offices of our own are lined up in their neat and clean way. How time files. We chose one door, the one…

Keep reflecting!
Oppression hoped that I would not have a community. Hoped that I would not have a legion. Hoped that I would be all alone. Yet a community and a legion meant that I didn’t do this alone. I joined a reflexive writing group this evening. My first. I have been writing reflexively here for the…

Keep how to be a star!
There are no rules you can’t break when your passion and commitment meets opportunities steeped in economics. Words will seep out of your lips and you will hear yourself say it’s about knowing your worth, finding and keeping a circle of safety so your dreams keep dreaming all on their own in an unflinching affectionate…

Keep women who write!
When you write, when you write about all of you, you will see the day you were born, vivid and clear. I have been writing now, consistently for almost 4 years, for myself first and the world second. I write in this way to be free, my way. You can take every thing from me.…

Keep scarves…
I was born with a scarf on my head. My shoulders too. Like my mother and her mother too. We were born wearing scarves, handwoven with threads, or hand-dyed with care, silent and golden. A generation of pride crowned the top of our heads with every scarf. I have worn scarves older than the day…
