& My Afro's Mean, 'Cause I do My Thing!

Soooooo, I know I said I was going to leave the braids in until the end of this month. But I just couldn't help it, lol and I took them down last week. I missed my little bitty fro. It had been a while since I had actually seen it in its natural state.

Today I wore my first dry twist-out. :)! The only product i used was Shea Moisture's Cocconut and Hibiscus Curl and Style Milk. I looooved it, so I thought I would share a few outcome pics. :).

Happy Hair & Much Love,
Eli :).

I found this bag from H&M on one of my favorite blogs, annnnd I want it! And for some crazy reason, there are like nooooo H&Ms in Texas (yess lol i live in Howdy Texas)?! I just don't understand... but wait, it gets worse guys, H&M doesn't have online shopping service for the US... smnh. Really H&M? Really?

I still love you H&M, but on the real, we need an H&M in Texas... Houston or Austin please :).

Simply Because, Poetry Is...

Young Soul

First, feel, then feel, then
read, or rear, then feel, then
fall, or stand, where you
already are. Think
of your self, and the other
selves... think
of your parents, your mothers
and sisters, your bentslick
father, then feel, or
fall, on your knees
if nothing else will move you,
                              then read
                              and look deeply
                              into all matters
                              come close to you
                              city boys--
                              country men

                              Make some muscle
                              in your head, but
                              use the muscle
                              in yr heart
