a dream I had about kissing a girl with her boyfriend in the other room

I was talking with her boyfriend in the main upstairs section of the house I grew up in, by the side windows, when she called me from what sounded like the bathroom. The door was open and we both heard her, so I didn’t have to excuse myself as I walked away from him thru another room to the bathroom where she was. She wasn’t on the toilet or anything. She was fully clothed, unfortunately enough, but kneeling or crouching down in the doorway.

She looked at me without saying anything at first, so I lowered myself to her level. It was apparent she wanted to tell me something she didn’t want her boyfriend, who remained in the main room waiting for me to come back, to hear. She leaned over and whispered in my ear; “We probably gon do it.” She was young and unsophisticated, but the meaning of those five words were crystal clear. It was her way of saying she wanted to have sex with me.

That came as somewhat of a surprise because we’d never made any obvious passes at each other. We’d become friends thru her boyfriend, but when he wasn’t around she mostly just talked to me about their relationship problems. She was blabby in general, so she usually did most of the talking. I’d just cut in every now and then to ask questions or offer reasonable solutions. I could tell she didn’t really like him, but I didn’t know she wanted me.

I responded to her statement with one word; “When?” She didn’t say anything in response. Instead she kissed me on the lips. There was no tongue, but those sexy thick lips were soft and warm like a morsel of something good that just came out the oven. She was just my type too; light-skinned, cute and petite; so I was instantly turned on. Neither of us said another word as I stood up and walked back to continue my conversation with her boyfriend.

audio review : a song from Nash-T Records : She Died A Nigger

This is a love song if I ever heard one. Okay, maybe “love” is too strong of a word. The beau, whom Nash-T Records carelessly refers to as The Klansman; they use that name for different singers; nonetheless develops feelings for the Nigger girl he first dated on a dare. “If I had known just how it would end,” he admits, “I’d have turned around and run away right then”.

It’s no surprise, given the title, that it ends with her death. How she dies is what’s sad. It suggests a real attraction on her part. His; he actually rides with her in the back of the bus; is conflicted with his deep-rooted racism. The best thing about the song is the melody of the verses, inspired by a relationship that, had it lasted, might’ve mended not only his heart but his mind.

my rating : 4 of 5
