Hello. It's Been Awhile.

This amazing photo work is by Samuel Bitton. :)

Allo Hello guys and girls! It's been since late September of 2015 since I last logged in on this side of the interwebs and I didn't even give anyone a heads up. How rude of me...

Now we are in 2016 and the future is looking pretty stellar. And cold. Seriously, let's amp of the temperature outside the room here. Personally I hope you all enjoyed (let's see what Holidays did I not write in...) your Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Christmas, Boxing Day and New Year's Eve along with the celebrations you had at midnight on New Year's!

Whew...that's a lot celebrating good times...come on!

Anywho, I'll get more into the year that was 2015 in my yearly post that I'm aiming to publish for your viewing pleasure later this week. As for 2016, I've got some goals in mind that I'm looking to complete and literally sprinting towards them out the gates.

Wishing all the best for everyone in this new year and I missed logging in on this blog. Don't worry, I hope to keep my interesting write-ups going for another round.

Speaking of rounds...it's Monday. Let's Do This!

And I Love Yo Faces!

Lyrical Spiritual 66

As I drag my feet across that halls through the clutter that's spread on the floor.

Step by step with no feeling as I made it upstairs.

With a glaze on the doors ahead while picking out my hair.

After making it to my destination, the darkness upon the opening greets me with it's glare.

Back inside here like a reunion that took a few years.

Flicking on the lights and see how much I stuffed inside here.

Picking up items that took me back in time.

Where I was just a boy, not knowing what in the world I was doing.

Taking a seat in the chair. Letting the environment consume me.

I've found my safe haven. Relaxed and filled with glee.

Or is that fear. Doubt. The unknown.

Is this even me? I don't know anymore.

When I don't feel like nothing's work, I just retreat to this room.

Just sitting here. Alone. Letting the pain consume.

Sometimes I just want to make a short stay then it turns into weeks.

I guess that's what happens when you put a light upon the anger in me.

Haha. See this is how life works for some.

They live, let the anger build with no release until they become none.

Rage can be a killer. Literally.

Hence why I have this room so I can disconnect spiritually.

Beyond these walls lie my others emotions and thoughts.

In my confinement, this is where I scream and shout.

See anger is part of my original blueprint since I first Press Start.

After figuring out it's coding, we are a unit known to leave a few marks.

Now we can get out of line. It's an intense emotion all it's own.

Adding that with a mindset and it become a supernova full blown.

No one understands why. And they never will.

How can you control? Just run over that hill.

Go into your room and take a look inside.

Do you like what you see or will shrivel up and hide?

There's a dark side to everyone. We all have flaws.

Whether you like to hide it or show it off on the walls.

It's alright, it's ok.

Your rage can become your ally.

Wishing is not enough. You have to open the door.

Take a breath. Then go inside and settle the score.

Cheers!

Lyrical Spiritual 65 (Never Forget)

On this day 14 years ago lives were changed.

An act of cowardice left an entire nation maimed.

As the towers that stood towards the New York skies came crashing down.

Thousands of people gone. Families broken. A country wearing a frown.

Within that moment of chaos and turmoil,

The United States of America chose not to fold.

When the cries of terror and help screamed from the scene,

We rushed straight into the depths looking to help anyone at the scene.

Lives were lost.

Families shed tears.

Friends said prayers.

Bystanders stood in mourning.

Through the fire and the flames we carried on.

A warzone was in front of us. We marched right in.

Cries and screams of our neighbors. We broke the walls down.

We Do Not Back Down.

14 Years Later. We're still standing.

So for today, think about where you were when you got that breaking news.

Your reaction when you turned the channel and saw the horrific images.

We are the United States of America: The Greatest Country on Earth.

And we will not let cowards define what this country truly is.

Special Condolences to those affected by the acts on September 11th, 2001. May those that lives were lost on that dark day and those families who lost someone special rest in peace and let their spirits live on. 

Love > Hate.

Cheers!

So much on the mind, so little time.

Here comes a few stanzas to help unwind.

RIP to Allison and Adam, that was an emotional storm.

An unspeakable act of evil that left this nation in mourn.

A man with hate in his heart with a sadistic mind.

Alined with cowardness wasting himself for his horrific crime.

Two lives gone; yet they will not be forgotten.

For the thousands they’ve touched, they will never be an afterthought.

Living life in crazy yet marvelous times.

With some dark moments trying to contain the shine.

However in a simple equation: Love > Hate.

So love someone today and put Hate in checkmate.

Cheers!

In Case of Emergency, Break The Glass.

Well it’s been awhile since I’ve done so watch out for the blast.

I’m back from a vacation that took me away.

Couple days of paradise have me feeling some kind of way.

From RVA to NOLA and everywhere in between.

So much insanity. Including the times on Bourbon Street.

Crazy in a good way cause I needed a mental break.

Enjoying beers and company while shining my lukewarm state.

Now back on the grind, the daily 9-5.

Taking life’s objectives and labeling them mine.

Going out to the world with a venomous smile.

Hmm…this one’s a doozy. This may take awhile.

Physically I’m resynced with a couple screws loose.

Not just naturally in the brain. All within my limbs too.

Pain is temporary but giving up is forever.

I have goals I want to lift. So I’m not giving in. Ever.

But for now I’m getting into the groove of things.

Stressing less, showing off more and other randomness galore!

Thinking about where on this road I want to turn to next.

Or do I keep going straight in hopes of finding that golden exit.

Who knows where I’m going along with the who, what, when and why.

For now, I’m just gonna keep rolling with these Raybans covering my eyes.

The next destination? Meh…I’m just enjoying the journey.

Rather be happy in the middle then stuck at the bottom mourning.

Cause I have the power to get better; everyone withholds that statistic.

Don’t fret on past opportunities with the new batch coming. Don’t miss it.

Keep grindin’ and smilin’ while getting that work done.

Then have some fun when the party time comes.

All work, no play? That could leave to an early grave entrance.

Also a pretty dull life that I forgot to mention.

In short…enjoy life. We only get one.

Cause any day above ground is a great one.

Cheers!
