Returning to tribalness we experienced before our pilgrimage, But positivity is the difference. The same villages that raised our kids are now monuments of iniquities. Is it weird that my people’s power is relinquishing? Gun violence is single-handedly destroying life expectancy. Early twenties: long enough to sow seeds; multiple parency. Swisha sticks and Uzi clips … Continue reading Slum Villages
Dark Shades and Cognac
In life, emotions are inevitable. Sometimes the more we ignore them, the deeper they sink. We all deal with them differently as well. Generally, people take a break from society, but some choose otherwise...how do you? Some wish for rain Liquid pain camouflage Tears of a clown Frown stained smile... Tinted emotions Silent shattered … Continue reading Dark Shades and Cognac

My P.S.I. (Prayer of Self Improvement)
My personalized prayer. I encourage everyone to examine and create one. Know your weakness better than the enemy... Lord, When I forget to let you lead, When to your word I do not heed, When I feel we're far apart, Charge it to my head and not my heart. When I'm froggy, hold my feet … Continue reading My P.S.I.

A special Mother's Day presentation to my mother... Her body morphs from the very figure that's the reason for your being into an incubation chamber and for 9 long months...morning sickness, appetite lost and found, and random tears and anger... Hot chips, pickles, ice cream...until it all climaxes one day with a scream! How far … Continue reading “Not My Best Friend”
