In case Nikki Haley isn't sure, there was once a song about slavery.
Wrote this as the holidays approached. Wasn't planning on being so sick, which kinda sucked up my planned Me Time. Next few days I will make up for that.
There are the beckon calls
For people with some tasks for me.
I don’t see me answering.
I don’t see me squandering.
Taking some me time.
Step out of the house, getting in my car
Driving into the light
And I’m gonna take some
Me time.
Yes, there are needs to be met.
And my me o’clock has been set.
I’ll see you in the morning.
With a big, selfie smile.
Tossed the world out for a while.
Reality
Is real without the spin.
Finally happy from within.
Because I took my me time
Take you some
Me time.
Me Time
It’s a non-stop world we are in
Constantly running ‘round
Constantly running ‘round.
It’s sink or swim.
And it freaks me how
No one can be pleased.
I had enough.
I’ll be surfing in the breeze and
Taking some me time
Yes, I want some
Me Time.
I sit in my chair; sip a drink.
Not about to go anywhere.
I’m not going anywhere
Grab a magazine.
Put my phone in the grass
Open my eyes and breathe.
Turn a page
In a book or magazine
I’m hooked on me time.
Loving all my
Me time.
Getting back in the groove. I will be appearing in Newark on December 30th to read my work at this open mic event. Very excited to share this. Hit the link and then the QR code for all the deets.

Well....this may have been an accident. Or, maybe not.
