Why in DC

I have been through some things in my life. But I have never had to go through some of the most traumatic things that children in DC are now seeing. Yesterday a young girl in a overnight summer camp accused another young man in the program of raping her. The sad this in that they are both underage and no one was around to say who is telling the truth because the boy is saying it was consensual. I don’t know how a child the age of 14 or 15 how ever old they are can think that they are ready to have sex or even think of raping someone. DC is falling by the way side and these parents need to protect their children.

IF YOU

If you make it to the sun
Tell my aunt Helen I want my earrings back

If you make it to the land of sand
Dance till u see a man name Jane
He's a quiet man who stands 10 feet tall

If you make it to water
Wash away the stains of the mustered seed

If you make it to the moon
Shack hands with the WoMen made of cheese

If you sail with strange dogs ware garlic in your underpants

But if you make it to all these places
Promise me you'll make it back in time for bed

@ Times

At times u can fall victim. You can forget what you’re capable of.
Forget what you are meant to love. Meant to succeed in. But at this moment on this night, for the life of me I can't seem to figure out when do we get the blue prints. All those things that those old folks said we should know better about. Or how were too old to be so childish. When did we know? When was it shown to us in a clear light bright enough to be stamped in our brain for a life time. Maybe I'm too old to be asking? Maybe it’s a forgetful night for me. But I really don't know better and I haven't been through this before so if you’re holding my blue print hostage somewhere I think its time u let her go. Cause I'm getting to old for this

Summer

Summer is about
Loving and losing
Hugging and brushing
Ticking and choosing
Laying and lying
Dying and trying
Summer is about the verbs
The herbs boiled in young pots
The lessons learned from old pops
The streams of sweat
The hours on a bus
Trying to make sure the summer before last doesn't out due the summer your in now
Buying new things because there on sale
Dancing in pools
Tanning
Stealing hearts and leaving them to wonder on the next visit what might be
Learning more then you do in school because the subject, teacher, and student is always you. It’s just the text book that changes.

Let me chatch up

I’m back yall I’m back and its still summer and I got black. I thought that was cute in my head. Well I have been to Florida and back. And on those bus trips I saw a lot. I wish it was cozy but it wasn’t. I wish I knew more about the family I was going to see. But I didn’t. But I did learn a lot about myself. Things that come over me that I never knew where or who they came from. Ways of me the mannerisms the whole lot, I found a little bit of me in Florida and even if I have to get back on greyhound I’m going to keep in contact with my family because no matter how many steps, and god parents grandparents excreta nothing beats the ones you were born to.

Oh it's what you do to me

I have been looking for a job this whole summer. And when I finally found one I feel like I’m dying. I have been painting this little girls room that my mom takes care of. Its fun because I’m with my mom. Making money and it no one breathing down my back. But my back is killing me at the end of the day everyday.

I hope to come back later with some better things to chat about. But so far I have been to Ocean City with a friend at the last min and I had a blast. I’m planning on going again this weekend coming for my best friend’s birthday. And after that going to Florida to visit my grandma. Then try and visit some friends in Richmond. So I’m not board anymore.
