I wrote this poem a few months ago now. I revisited it and tweaked it every now and again, but I am finally ready to hear/see what other people think of it. I have already gotten the opinion from a close friend a long time ago--not sure if she remembers that email. So with her encouragement and a mini boost of confidence, here it is:

It's been a while....New Direction!! =)
It's been a while since I have really blogged about anything substantial up here. I changed the playlist right now to be completely praise and worship....that may change again. I don't want all my blogs to look like polar opposites, but more of facets of the same person. Right now both this blog and my iSketch My Heart Out blog use Mixpod. I think I am preferring the Hypster player on my tumblr blog.
How is this blog changing?
I think on here I will focus more on spoken word and poetry. Perhaps I will find a way to integrate it into my existing my web pages under KatelynRichelle.com. I think most people will get that Kay Rich is just my first two names shortened. I still like the idea of feeding my youtube page to this site and vimeo to my wordpress. It just seems to make sense to me.
I will still posts opinions on various things, but I would like to have it more focused. I'll see how it goes. If you guys have any suggestions, let me know!!
Peace and blessings!
Kay Rich

CNN: 'Can I touch it?' The fascination with natural, African-American hair by Lisa Respers France
I cannot begin to describe how many times random people have asked could they touch my hair. Unless it's a really close friend, it really irks me and makes me feel uncomfortable like I am some sort of specimen. Everyone has hair; I have never asked to touch anyone's hair before...I also have had people who did not ask--which just makes me angry regardless if I know them or not. Hair is hair--chill out and keep your unwelcome hands to yourself!! (If it's a little kid, it's different. Kids are supposed to be curious--I just make them wash their hands first.)

An awesome Praise & Worship album!!
I bought the album Introducing the City Harmonic, The City Harmonic's freshman album, after I first heard this song Manifesto on a local christian radio station. I completely love every single song on this album. =) Even the booklet that accompanies the album is really good with statements about the stories and background behind the songs--it's really encouraging!
