Sunday "Tree" Logic... Prayer of the Vine Swinger
The vines bring me closer to You
Comfortable knowing You don't judge what I do
With rapists and killers and liars around
No wonder some claim that You can't be found
Shit is hard out here and everyone's in need
But those thoughts of desperation can disappear among the trees
Those liars and killers and rapists and such
Make the innocent pay for the sake of their own crutch
Their crutch is their weakness, their shame and inner defeat
All of which would be resolved if they swung up in the trees
That brings this back to me, the vine swinger, the sinner
The truth is God, from which I sit I still come out the winner
My vice is all natural
Yet it brings me back to you
I still have Your love, I still have Your Grace and Your acceptance of what I do
I talk to You often as I swing among the trees
Your voice becomes so clear washing over me in the breeze
Unsure of what's in store,
Unclear on Your plan for me
Yet confident and unwavering in my belief it'll be quite a sight to see
So thank you God, in advance for the troubles and the trials
I'll just sit back and relax on my tree and kick it with You for awhile

I Blow Smoke
Sunday "Tree" Logic...I Blow Smoke
I blow smoke
To help me cope
With the state of the world today.
I blow smoke
Don't shoot dope
Cause that problem won't go away.
I blow smoke
To get my mind right
For the shit I have to face.
I blow smoke
To protect the innocent
From my disdain with the human race.
I blow smoke
To lighten my mood
When I have a heavy heart.
I blow smoke
To free my filtered tongue
And drop knowledge a la carte.
I blow smoke
But not up asses
I blow it in the air.
If you blow smoke
Then catch a wiff of mine
I'm always happy to share.

The Truth Will Fuck You Up
Thursday "Tree" Logic...The Truth Will Fuck You Up
Sooo, I get a text from a number I don't recognize. I ask who it is and in response he sends me a couple pictures...very nice pictures...very, very nice pictures! Turns out, it's a guy I met some months ago over the Internet. He's asking me what my schedule is like. He told me his schedule and I asked him to come up to the bar to join us (me and my girls) for a drink. He said he would try after his game! Fast forward to this morning. I keep getting phone calls from a strange number. I finally answer and its some chick asking if I know her man!
"Tree Logic" part 1: Ladies, never call a stranger asking them about YO man! Your problem is NOT with her, ya problem is with YO man! If you feel the need to be up at the crack of dawn, going through your mans phone, you need to get ya life together!
I gave her that little bit of "tree logic" above along with some other pearls of wisdom. Before I knew it she was crying! Now I'm hearing about the 6 week old baby she has with him and how much she loves him.
Fuck! I WANTED to stay mad at her for interrupting my peaceful sleep! But she is now a woman in distress! I tell her to calm down and pull herself together. I tell her to hang up, splash some water on her face and think about if she is ready to handle the answers to the questions she is asking.
"Tree Logic" part 2: Make sure that when you go looking for trouble, you are emotionally prepared for what you find. We all have heard the saying that when you go searching for trouble you usually find it...but what the saying doesn't tell you is how you are going to feel at the very moment of revelation. Usually, you're fucked up! You are inflicting pain upon yourself when you go searching instead of just allowing what is done in the dark to show itself in the light!
She text me that she was ready to hear the truth! I sent her screen shots of our ENTIRE conversation, including the pictures he sent me of him holding his dick in his hand! I also sent her the link to his profile on the website we met on saying that states how single and drama free he is.
"Tree Logic" part 3: Men...I am a single woman with no one to answer to. I am able to do whatever and whoever I choose within my own limits. If your status is not the same, then you need not visit your drama onto others. If I get a call from your wife, baby momma, FWB or whatever the hell they are to you...after I make her feel like a Cosby kid for even calling me, I'm gonna blow up ya spot. You deserve whatever you get for being such a lowdown, dirty, lying, trifling snake in the grass!
She calls me to thank me for being honest and to apologize for calling me with this nonsense. She then asks me what she should do.
"Tree Logic" finale: Figure out what type of life you want to live, then make the decision (or divisions) that support that lifestyle!

Social Network PSA
Thursday "Tree Logic"...Social Network PSA
Communicating over social networking sites have the tendency to cause stupid misunderstandings. Stupid misunderstandings tend to cause stupid arguments.
Stupid arguments cause stupid decisions and
Stupid decisions lead to a fucked up life!
Don't have a fucked up life because you only know how to communicate on social networking sites!

Queen to Be
Tuesday After Afternoon "Tree" Logic...She's Your Queen to Be
Either I am swinging really high on the vines today or this is still the most hilarious movie to me. True fans know exactly what this is...lol
She's your queen to be
A queen to be forever
A queen who'll do whatever His Highness desires
She's your queen to be
A vision of perfection
An object of affection
To quench your royal fire
Completely free from infection
To be used at your descretion
Waiting only for your direction
Your queen to be.....

Borrowed Words of Wisdom
Tuesday Afternoon "Tree" Logic...Borrowed Words of Inspiration
The following is NOT an excerpt from "Coach Carter".
"Coach Carter" borrowed this from a book written by Christian author, Marianne Williamson
Let the words sink into your spirit.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you, not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-Marianne Williamson

The Truth of The Liar
Tuesday "Tree" Logic...The Truth about The Liar
The truth is that the liar is a coward.
The truth is that the liar is terrified of themselves.
Afraid of the truth of who they are.
Uncomfortable in their skin, so mirrors have been banished.
Unable to get what they want by simply being who they are, so the second face becomes the first and they've even managed to fool themselves into believing their lie.
I ask the liars to take a moment to consider that as fucked up as you are, the world is populated by others such as yourself, so..."You are not alone..." ( in my Michael Jackson voice)
I ask you to understand that there is nothing more satisfying then shedding your fear of who you are, and simply falling in love with the real you!
I ask the liars to grow some balls and some integrity in the same breathe.
Stop being so frightened and selfish that you assault us into acccepting, liking and loving you based on the second face which you presented as the first!
You see, when you get what you want, but not based on who you are you perpetuate your own fear of being found out. Purposely prolonging the misery of your existence. How dumb of you! (-_-)
Today is your lucky day because the truth is, Liar, there is still a way out for you.
When the shit hits the fan, and it surely will, your jig will be up and all you'll be left with is... you.
Do yourself a favor and come clean right now. Grab the person nearest to you and just tell them a truth and let the chips fall where they may. You'll be amazed at the load immediately lifted from your shoulders, even if they don't accept you. They just may surprise you and stick around in spite of you finally showing your first face second. But then, finally showing your first face, your real face...would be a deliberate act of bravery and the truth is...
The liar is a coward, terrified of themself and afraid of the truth of who they are.
Uncomfortable in their skin, so mirrors have been banished to the point that they won't even see their reflection in these words.

Love or War?
Monday "Tree" Logic
Everyday we are all faced with decisions and some are easier to make than others.
One decision that will impact how you interact with others is very simple.
You must decide if it is more important for you to be right all the time, or to have peace?
Whichever you decide, just know that it will come with sacrifice.
If it is most important for you to be right all the time, then you must be prepared for battle...all the time!
You'll have to fight...all the time!
I'd rather make love, not war...so knowing when to shut the hell up is a MUST!

Thoughts from a Polyamorous Vine Swinger
Saturday Evening "Tree Logic"...Thoughts of a Polyamorous Vine Swinger
My heart is larger than the confines of it's encasement
Capable of holding in high volumes and vast degrees
I love many and
Many love me
So...Why ruin a great thing with your selfish need to have me all to yourself
Sometimes, sharing is caring!

The Fox and The Rat
Saturday "Tree" Logic...The Fox and The Rat!
Sooo...I saw a fox walking across the street just now. Unafraid in the task at hand. Taking it's time to look and take in it's surroundings. It saw me and didn't give a shit that I was there. Just went on it's way...Completely comfortable in it's skin and in it's purpose. Unashamed of being a fox!
Then, I saw a rat. Scurrying along. Camoflauging himself. Stopping and starting at every little noise...even the ones he was making. Hiding in the shadows, hoping to go unnoticed. Afraid that, if seen, the ridicule and hate from those different than himself would be so brutal that retreat would be his only option. Abandoning the task at hand.
In that moment, one thing became clearly evident to me: I am a stone, cold fucking fox!
How about you? Are you a fox...or a rat?
