--Excerpt from "Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo" by Ntozake Shange
No diggity. No doubt.
this person and super grateful she's in my life.
emma does. gangstalicious, that is,
ganstalicious indeed
understands my once boderline obsession
with jackie brown, the big payback or
viewing it in a room more than emma.
remember those days? despite her
notorious habit of gettin lost and a
fatal attraction to sephora, emma is
good people. (jk...;c)) seriously, emma
is one of my dearest friends and i swear
if you cut her she'd bleed giggles,
theory, lavender, and yes, naughtiness.
if you ever need a stiff drink and some
good company, emma's your grrl.
Emma. Period. From the day that she
has walked into my life, this special
bond existed between her, I and the
earth. Emma you complete me. She's
the only one that truly understands my
trials and journeys I had in the A T
L. Nobody can interpret "lah wekk,"
like a true ATLien. Emma you are that
ATLien.
go hop hop...
triffe forces, what would I do without
you and your text messaging addiction?
Grems and I are learning to deal with
each other's insane tendencies and it's
a fun process (scary at times). Emma
constantly harasses me about my 5
million issues and then pokes me to
make me laugh, what else can one ask
for...realness and intelligence always
followed by an overdose of silliness.
Don't worry Grems, I am changing my
cell plan to include unlimited data
usage....the text wars will resume.
fucked up and she didn't think i was
funny. over time she realised that i
am funny. i think my point is that
this woman sees things closer to the
truth. i've learned a lot from her and
with her. then there's the fun, cute,
cuddly, wild voodoo child. blow some
bubbles and make her smile :)
women's studies classes and snicker about
the douchey second wavers in our class.
She suffers fools poorly, but comically. Oh
Emma, I'm lost without you and your witty
disses.
