Chapter 1:
Blue Eyes Like Me
Chapter 2: Pink Like Me
The
Moonlight Reprise by Kai Engel captures the uncertainty about our existence and
search for truth within ourselves and where we fit into the universe. The piano
in this piece of music is yearning, pleading, and discussing with its god the
meaning of life—it has so many unanswered questions.
“Qattara,
how is it possible for me to feel beautiful if I don’t look like my creators,
my parents. Am I wrong to feel less worthy, less valued, less important than my
dark brown sisters? Why didn’t I get to choose how I want to look? Why didn’t I
get to choose my own life purpose, my destiny, Qattara?”

Chapter 3:
Broken Vows
Jungle Beauty Goddess Afar sees her creation Earth’s first
man and falls lustfully in love with him. She uses her deity powers to explore
his body. Beyoncé’ s Naughty Girl song
highlights the energy of not only what Afar does to Mada, but also how rationalizes breaking
her vows.
“From stars to dust from dust to me, don’t believe a thing
you see. It’s never how it looks or seem—It’s just a wet and juicy dream.”
There now, go back to sleep, she seductively commanded. Mada’s closed eyes
tightened, and his breathing evened…”
Chapter 4:
Nothing without You
In most relationships, we fantasize about what it would be
like with a person before we manifest a physical relationship with that person.
In our fantasy, this is where the most exquisite, licentious, and uninhibited
merging of the souls take place. Chapter 4 is one of—if not my favorite chapter
in Dirty Ball because I loved how Jungle Beauty Goddess Afar and Mada connected
in another realm of reality.
“Afar clutched her chest and dropped to her knees when she
saw the stone sculpture that Mada had created of them together. The sensuous
beauty of the sculpture solidified her love for Mada. Her adoration for the
stone masterpiece sizzled her being into the stone, causing it to liquefy as
she merged into it.”
Chapter 6: Let Me In
This is the
point in the relationship when both Jungle Beauty Goddess Afar and Mada both
realize that it may be impossible to meet each other’s needs because of prior
obligations and fate. They realize that they love each but explore whether love
enough.
“In the throes of passion, Afar was almost too drunk with
pleasure to push Mada away-- butterflies and humming birds swarming around the
gates of her secret garden. She wanted to let him in. She felt him at the door,
pushing and knocking. But, all she could think about was the one technical vow
that she had not broken and how breaking it could destroy her relationship with
her sisters. “
Chapter 13:
Fatherless Beings
“Afar
interrupts Mada, grabs the half-carved wooden bird from Mada’s hand, and
declares, “I loved you. I still love you.
I will always love you. Yes, maybe I was wrong in how I expressed my
love for you…but it was still love… raw love…passionate love… real love. No
matter how misguided, tainted, and imperfect it was… it was still love.”
Chapter 14:
Our Pink Babies
Even with
all of her flaws, Afar begins to learn from her mistakes and wants to evolve
and save the world that she and her sisters created.
“Rules exist because when you take away someone else’s freedom, you
take away their right to choose what is for their highest good; and you take
away your own freedom because you have to give up an aspect of yourself to
confine someone else. When I violated your rights, Mada, I took away my own.”

Excerpt
1
When her sobs
turned into whimpers, he picked her up and carried her to their bathroom to
take a bath together. The bathroom walls were red, with red and orange tile
floors made out of ruby and carnelian gemstones. The red garnet fireplace was
lit; and the deep, brilliant orange flames softly glowed throughout the room.
Pink roses and candles surrounded the orange Jacuzzi. The steamy, hazy orange
light filled the room accented by pink bubbles. The room smelled like a floral
garden with hints of sandalwood and frankincense.
Nebula wrapped
her arms around Dematter’s neck. He gently loosened her arms from his neck and
sat her down on the red velvet couch in the bathroom. He bunched her long,
black, wavy hair into a ponytail and wrapped a red rose around it to hold it in
place. Dematter kissed the trail of tears on Nebula’s cheeks before kissing
each eyelid. He kissed the tip of her nose. His tongue traced her full lips,
before parting them with his tongue. Nebula’s tongue met Dematter’s with
eagerness. They kissed. He removed his tongue from her mouth, sucked her bottom
lip and said, “Nebula, look at me. You are the love of my life. I would never
do anything to hurt you or our children. Believe in me again. Love me again.”
Nebula buried her face on the side of his neck. Dematter could feel her warm
tears rolling down his back. Nebula couldn’t talk. She hugged Dematter as tight
as she could to let him know that she still loved him—wanted him—and needed
him.
