" Action is eloquence. "
- William Shakespeare

" Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress. "
- Mahatma Gandhi

" I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it. "
- Alice Walker

" It's not enough to have a dream, Unless you're willing to pursue it. It's not enough to know what's right, Unless you're strong enough to do it. It's not enough to learn the truth, Unless you also learn to live it. It's not enough to reach for love, Unless you care enough to give it Men who are resolved to find a way for themselves will always find opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they will make them. "
- Samuel Smiles

" I love the people here. I love New York. "
- Rita Moreno
I’M FROM
Written by Melissa Noelle Green

I'M FROM
I'm from pastel colored sidewalks decorated with dirt bikes and kick balls with shoe prints of enthusiasm.

I'M FROM
Homey the clown transients from the block who taught hard knocks and street science better than any professor I knew.

I'M FROM
Lady Sings the Blues, Billie Holiday a sister with a drumbeat pulse and an octagon voice equivalent to a Rolls Royce.

 I'M FROM
Federal Express, UPS attention deficit mind sets who deliver magnificent ideas all over the place, that swallow up the presence of incredible spaces.

I'M FROM
An untitled complex rough draft document with fragmented hand written lines and incomplete sentences that run on beyond recognition.

I'M FROM
Barbecue pits, of cooks with colorful and flavorful conversations about the good 'ole days, Franky Beverly and Maze and why poor folks are the most discriminated or mistreated based upon race.

I'M FROM
Overheated parked cars, sitting on Denny Way and Olive, down the street from Rite Aid where the old Broadway Theater used to be. That’s where I saw Spike Lee's School Daze and discovered a yellow bag of potato chips called LAYS.

I’ M FROM
The battle field of Ghetto Dreams, where everyday we searched for something to eat and promising our moma we stay off the streets. A 24-7 hustle, full of nothing but prayer, while keeping my head, held high. A former love child baptized in my ancestors cries.

I'M FROM
L.A., grit. Hard-core hearts, skate parties after dark and graffiti artists gang bangers Named Duce, Cornbread, and Lucky Malone. Semi automatic rhetoric with jibber jash tones make you wanna swallow some Advil for your Chromosones and leave the craziness alone.

I’M FROM
The Power of 10
 Back when patterns were like my friends and Black Symbolisms was the language and logic I held within. A brain like a walking chalk board with Dominican amber visions singing to no end. Dream scapes so magnetic and genuine there is no need to pretend. Genetic algorithm membranes being beautiful again, like butterflies with sandstone reflected diamonds, or a Tibetan Fox Flying with words that bend with a Shakespearean trend. Or Women joining together with men or the way my great, great, great, great, great grandmother used to say my name like it was gem, back, when I was ten.

I'M FROM
Here! Where you from?



My Soul Says Yes

My soul is a house of peace & prayer.
My vision is your vision & our vision is clear.
From this day forward I will walk with purpose.
I will give birth to love in all relationships
that seek to nurture, develop & trust.

Doubt does not live here.
Watch me as I journey step
by step into the light,
watch how my spirit becomes child like.

MY SOUL SAYS YES to self love

I thank you for the trials and tribulations for they have made me stronger. God, I thank you in advance for salvation and your healing barometer. I thank you for guiding my tongue and giving me a sound mind, your grace and magnificent power is always on time.

MY SOUL SAYS YES
When I am tired, when I don't want to but I need to because it has to get done. My soul says yes when I don't understand. I thank you for kissing my thoughts in the morning and doing surgery on my spirit at night. I thank you for doing a new thing in me & helping me to balance my life.
