Down in the Dirt v050


What is Romance and Intimacy in 2007?

Tanisha Alexander
AKA
Phenomenally

A man asked me this
I was stumped
And upset because I couldn’t answer him?

I thought to myself
It’s saying you will come over
And you do

So I’m happy
Even though it’s 11 at night

Nooo
It’s saying I’mma call you after work
But I don’t hear from you until after 9

Nooo
Its Lets go to a movie
But oh
Change of plans
Lets watch this DVD
At my place
On my couch
So I can feel on you

Nooo
It’s actually having a conversation
Before doing the do

Noo
What the hell is it
Obviously it hasn’t shown its presence around me

I don’t know Intimacy
And who the hell is romance?

Is that the new couple I met at the gym?
Or maybe the zoo
Or are they related to Kim

Anyway, I don’t know them
Or I’m having a damn hard time remembering
Who they are
Where did they came from
Or why they came in the first place

I don’t know who’s to blame
For their disappearance
People are immune to it
Like the little girls
Receiving the vaccine for the Human Papilloma Virus

I know who killed it
It was rough sex
The porn industry
TV
Sexual demeaning rap music
Booty calls
And
Lowered standards

But fuck all of that
Cuz I still don’t know
What
Romance
Or Intimacy
Means

��
So can you please share their definition with me?
