I had an experience one day at an open mic in Trenton reading a poem. A Black Jamaican guy I was in a poetry group with named Joseph along with a few other poets said “Ayesha, I like your poetry”. He was nice. I thought of our similar interests of writing poetry, the compliment he gave me kept me smiling all day. Joseph and I were taking a break. I thought of Joseph saying “I like writing poetry too”. He had a baldy and he wrote poems too. Joseph was telling me he went to college in Jamaica. I got a new yellow dress out of Target and put on a pink Gucci baseball cap I bought for myself. I went to a open mic in Trenton. I read a poem called”Too This/Too That”. I was actually able to pull it off. I wonder if Russell Simmons would invite me to read “Too This/Too That” poem at Def Poetry Jam.
