Black Man Recipe Posted on 10-14-2004

~ Black Man Recipe ~ I'm making a black man cake cause I'm hungry as hell. And the sweet tooth I have, only a brother can break the spell. Let me reach into my spice rack to see what I can get. To make a mix that will stick to my stomach you can bet. 2 cups of intelligence, 1 cup of sugar brown. Cause he's got to be sweet, mental, deep and sound. Cinnamon is always good to accent the taste A few cups of culture so he's down for his race You see I won't bite into anything that's not conscious of its own. That's why I stick to chocolate and leave angel food alone. I am adding butter cause he must be smooth 2 raisins for the dimples will also be cool. I must add nuts so he can reproduce Can't leave him hanging cause I like kids too! I think I'll add a little salt to balance him out And a dominant profile to show he has clout. For a responsible man I'll throw in some yeast So he can rise to the occasion when I'm ready to feast. I'll add 8 cups of strength and into the oven to bake Turn it to 360 degrees to balance out his mental state. Now that its done I'm sorry sistas I won't share the wealth That's why I'm sharing the recipe because I'm eating this black man all by myself. ~ Good Black men are indeed all around us. We pass them on the streets, in the malls and the halls at work. Most we can't see because we don't know what a good man really looks like. He usually isn't flashy enough or rich enough to turn our heads. He might not wear a suit or push a Lex. He might not have a "body like Arnold with a Denzel face." But, as you mature, you realize it's better to find someone who's got your back than someone who turns your head. A good man doesn't agree wholeheartedly with everything you say. He doesn't just tell you what you want to hear and do the opposite. He doesn't declare how sensitive, sweet, caring,sincere, yada yada he is (he wont have to because it shows). He has his own opinions and you may clash, but he doesn't have to degrade you to prove he's right. He even admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same. A good man is not going to meet every item on your checklist. He is human with frailties and faults mixed in with all of his wonderful, strong attributes. He needs your love and respect. He needs to feel that you don't live to "catch" him doing something wrong so you can declare, "Aha! I knew you were a dog!!" A good man doesn't necessarily give you a huge birthday or Valentine's gift. He shows his love in the ways that are comfortable to him. Don't judge him by TV standards. No one is living that fairy tale for real. You'll miss out on your own fairy tale by buying into the myth that our men are no good. It's just not true. ~ Black Men, we salute you, and thank you for who you are and all you've done Hey I know some of you may have gotten this in email but what do you think of this...is this a true recipe of a black man...i think it hits home pretty well. Let me know your thoughts. Much Love to you all ~ 1LUV

I read this on a black poetry website last year, and I've been looking for it ever since, do you happen to have the reply to it? it's called the black womans recipe I think, both of them were good.
