Crossroads. (A short story about the entertainment industry)

He would go on from […]

Is This the Best We Can Do?

Is this really the best we can do? Love thy neighbor is a difficult concept?/ “United we stand divided we fall” is something we don’t get?/ Open your heart is something we can’t let?/ Happen/ Is disrespect really the foundation of everyone rapping?/ Or are we sadistic & sadomasochistic rubber necking the car accident as […]

What the Soul is up to.. #Spirituality #OpenDiscussion #RhythmNPoetry

What is the Soul up to? Initially, this started out as a question I asked myself first, then I asked God. God replied, “What do you believe the soul is up to?” to which I replied; “I bet the soul is a mini version of you” God said nothing else after that. Knowing her the […]
