Cloudy Dayz

Don't really know what to say. All I can do is wake up, Brush my teeth and pray before starting this day. As much as I would like to feel appreciated, Acceptance is my only option as flashbacks storm past my eyes while pain, Just pain, Clutters my mind... Because, I know I've made mistakes!...

Bernardo’s Mind: Interlude

"Inflicted by drug addiction, I, Can tell who's walking all around the city with cloudy vision. I, Can sense when a soul is surrounded by white girls with their panties missing. I, Can see who's game and playing their cards right or taking shots at a gamble without thinking it through... But, What about that... Continue Reading →

What Are Bars To You?

What are bars to me? My canvas painted with scars to see. My mind's body from limb to limb, To tell my story from every part of me... It's a place of freedom whenever I feel captive, Ironically... It isn't a place just for blacks and latinos, But a sanctuary to leave our marks wherever... Continue Reading →

Like Even Stevens (Written In 2018)

I need a break from insanity. Make reservations with a woman called Vanity. Why self destruct under constructs created by my own pain? Whenever I don't pay my inner child any ounce of attention, While driving on a road to ascension, Redemption, Whatever anybody wants to name it... I thought I was only human, Losing...

Isn’t it? You Know It Is!

Why rise from slumber and whinge at Society's general follies? Is the question. Yet, A person like me? Hard-headed even after breaking out of his long-time, Corrugate shell of reticence, Discovers that to be strenuous. Spending laborious amounts of time relaxing my nerves after involuntarily witnessing any kind of ignorance. Ridiculing myself over and over... Continue Reading →

State Of Affairs

"Mami! Climbing on this thing is fun!" "What the hell is your damn problem!? Stop it right the fuck now!..." Everyone in the area immediately turned around, Startled and probably wondering, How? How can you possibly yell at a sweet child just, Grinning and shuffling feet circling a Mother squared by misbegotten anger as she... Continue Reading →

Putting Two & Two Together

*Side Note!* Hey y'all 😄, I wanted to share a piece I wrote for one of my auditions at the Apollo (in which I was definitely denied lol). But, it brings back good ole' memories and a much needed reminder of how life and attitudes change. I'm just grateful to be in a frame of... Continue Reading →

Holiday Carols

Within these verses, I am not certain that I will make it out alive, As I shower amongst waterfalls. A representation of how I feel in the inside... But, On the outside? Nothing but a shell of a smile worn out from years of use. Even if you think I'm handsome and try to make... Continue Reading →

Ashy Elbows On Rainy Days

As beautiful as the sky can be, Rain may fall as tears float down onto soil absorbing our sorrow for us, So that we can grow the biggest smile possible... The rain is so gorgeous, Voluptuous in its Fall. Every single rain drop splashing on my dry, Ashy elbows feel as if all my emotional... Continue Reading →
