Most of my writing focuses on the rationalizations that we have with ourselves. The realizations that come about which ultimately lead to many conversations that we have amongst ourselves daily. I sometimes forget where I’m at on the street and answer myself out loud, and boy do the people cross the street quickly… But I feel and believe that we talk to ourselves for re-assurance and to maintain a connectedness with our spirit & soul.

I invite everyone to check out my stuff and leave comments or constructive criticism… Just know that i work two jobs- “cause ain’t nothin’ going on but the Rent”… lol So therefore I am limited with time and effort that i place into my literary projects- But know that I am just “a Mess in Progress”.

Journal, Diary, & Blogging / My Own Book of Revelations
Version 1

My Own Book of Revelations How can I live in a system that either does not want me to live or consistently make my life a living hell? if I – while I’m living. I am conflicted with giving up or living in shame. I cannot believe that the person that I have become is the same kind of person I have mocked, or prided myself in not being. At this moment. I now realize that I was raised to be a proud person; sometimes I was just proud when I didn’t deserve to be. The dilemma stands before me to eit...

Short Story… Ascending Tears Written by I. Teddy Bonet Chapter 1 Today I sit here looking into space... Today I sit here just staring into space, never believing in all my life this could happen to me. I am a young black woman with a lot to look forward to, but instead of thinking about college, I am sitting here wondering if I'm pregnant or not. I guess it's not so hard to believe. I mean that's what most people expect from a young black girl raised in a somewhat decent home or trying to act...

Poetry / Sacrifice
Version 1

Sacrifice Let me explain to some of y’all twink’s what sacrifice is… We all love, we all lose. No one is higher than another, all pains- are just that. Pain… It should make us grow and mature… But when we measure how much more we have endured and suffered, That what we have endured and suffered is more than the next man, woman, child, or even inanimate objects. We have lost. Sacrificed in Vain… Lost the purpose of pain, of sacrifice. Lost the steps of the process, the cycle. The cycle that ma...

Quotes / illusion
So very true, because once one has dipped below thinking clearly and level-headed, most people become lost. They lose the truth about themselves, their morals, and/ or their standards of living and dealing with reality. The illusion is sometimes a lack of "common sense", i believe... Be well ttyl Teddy :-)
Quotes / I Pissed God Off
That is very deep, and the quote within itself- is very deep. This is how i interpret this, please dont be upset. I am thankful and very grateful that i did wake up- think about it in a larger perspective. Of how many people that do not wake up from their slumber, and wish that they had one more day to change/ fix all that they were miserable about. It is just my belief that God is not the one that punishes us, we a very good job of making ourselves suffer a great deal from all that we have i...
Poetry / Plateau
- There appears a plateau a lake of window, where wind disturbs... This first part is very good, but might need the comma placed after the word plateau. It broke up the rhythm of the words, and just flowed a bit better. Sometimes when I cut and paste my stuff it gets rearranged, so i always check it before i save. To make sure that the reader will get the best experience from reading what you had written. Your words did vividly give way towards imagining the plateau. Good Luck Teddy
Poetry / Commodity
Very Good work... You hit the nail right on the head with the inner turmoil, and battles that i have been going through and did not understand. Even know where to begin to try to explain to other's. Constantly tring to make a decision and contradicting myself every step of the way, with how i view myself and others in the world... Teddy
Poetry / Utopia
Very Good. I enjoyed this. The words expressed many feelings, and left many questions. I liked your layout and setup of the positioning of the words. You take the reader through your thoughts and transitioning emotions surrounding death. You briefly explain enough. The feelings of wanting to die, to embrace it, hope for it, or just accept it as being inevitable. Feelings of loss, helplessness, and hopelessness. Good Luck Teddy
