Sometimes I think of things I need to write down in order to break through the blockage.

These are those things.

First Memory

I have a few memories that I think I’ve stolen. I can’t quite remember if they are mine, in my actual memory, a dream, or a story I’ve heard from my cousins. A couple of them are haunting, and I feel just the memory of the memory is enough to have shaped my life in…

To Sleep, Perchance to Dream

During our early years, we are taught to crave sleep. I remember morning conversations with my high school acquaintances, “Hey. What’sup? How’s your day?

Freshman year of college: I remember during orientation day, being handed a nicely colored pamphlet with pictures of smiling girls all over it doing fun things. There was one girl my age that was at Wayne State University with me from…

Ocean Jasper and the 44

A Myriad of coincidences are happening in my life DAILY, and I need some answers. JUST this week three very strange things have happened.
