Queen Bee Legacy

If she was a song
she'd be an ol' Negro Spiritual
swing low sweet chariot
cuz this world don't do her right
got her wadin' in the water of life
but she got
life coming up to her ears
merely tryin to make it

Make it a better life
for them
who have to take it
the baton,
her legacy,
the one of a worker bee
with dreams of royalty

and she knows that there's more for me
so i fight for my destiny
I won't rest, you see
until, you best believe
you'll see me up there

my mama done declared
im the head and not the tail
above and not beneath
the H-S-I-C
head sistah in charge

livin' large and rollin' deep
so you better watch your mouth
and how you speak
don't come up in here
with your negative vibes
cuz you are looking at
the Queen
of the hive.

What's the point

Why am I doing this? What is this page all about? Plain and simple, this is an outlet for self-expression...I feel like writing, but I'm tired of making all these random text files on my computer. With that said, the content of this blog is ME up-close and personal, in your face. I'll be writing poems, songs, short stories, vent-sessions, whatever I feel like at the moment . If you like it, that's cool; if not, well that's cool too. I'm just trying not to bottle up this creative potential inside of me.

As for the name, "Empirically Lyrical," i kind of named it that just because it sounds good and it makes you think....my main point is that these poems and random writing are based on my observations and the way I feel about life. Anyway, so read on and maybe you'll get a glimpse of what I'm trying to say
