The Herbal Curio Lady

Herbal Curio Lady

there she goes
the herbal shop lady
full of the blues
like the traditional dude
who is still full of sacred runes

she came in one day
the herbal shop lady
dressed in a new hairdo
dressed like the Faroh

i wondered who she impressed
i wondered why she was so depressed

& there she went
the herbal shop lady
wondering who she was speaking to
behind those dark glasses
i wondered who she was forgiving
rhyming her desires into effect

she drove in one day
brand new as usual
roaming her spirits arounding & about
she parked
& walked out
walking gently towards her normal direction
deciding upon her human nature for the day
sharpening her realisation
pruning her awareness
she wanted to wake up
she wanted to raise her cup
celebrate life
reading all the minds that surround her
looking at the thoughts of those that cherish her silent behavior
smiling as though.....
as though she knew she was a player

she blinked at the sight of honour
she winked at the height of a donor

she never did like them boys though
always working
always trying
she never did like them toys
always raising
always praying

she knew she was alone
approaching her skills
was liking dreaming of the unknown
she blended in with all the colors
she knew she was a real deal
she knew she was a real creed
always enjoying her cream
always enjoying her dreams

& there she goes again
the herbal shop lady

opening her ways
from 10:00 am to 18:00 pm
Mondays to Saturdays
some days she is off

I heard about her runes
I heard about her truth
always in divine mode
always ready to flow

The herbal curio lady
born in the ghettos of fate
dropped her beat in the state
she knew all her brothers
she drew all her sisters
she painted all the tomorrows
to sell to a client full of sorrows

she wrote her future to become as one
she wrote her past to become a wand

business as always
reasons of fore play
created a world full of games
seasoning all fame

she knew how to become
a good cause for business sake
church dealers are shaking
herbalists are breaking
her youth is her breed
how can we be free???

she walks beside the laws
she talks inside her flaws
she won't decide against her norms
but she will divide her cause
spread her desires
to win once and for all
awarding ceremonies
are full of one song!!
xoxo
