Boneyard gift
Bear this message,
A journey from overseas,
Marks the milestone of partners in crime;
“Fetch my bone, bring my cup, and let us be in peace.”

Art life 6
So while my painting is drying. “Do I feel like I can’t part with my art; you know, one out of many artist syndrome,” no it’s off to go. : )
FREEDOM
Stranger; “What would you do/say if you were residing in a country or place where your human rights specifically the freedom of speech and expression, sexual identity and orientation are illegal or worse put to death.”
Me; “I would get the fuck out. If everyone leaves then there’s no more people to run a country or place anymore. And if trapped, then fight.”
Scent
I smell nice, it’s true. I think people should start to include in their bio what their natural body scent smells like; I smell like a mix of vanilla ice cream and honey. And what do you smell like.
I
I’VE GOT NOTHING TO HIDE MOTHERFUCKERS. NO SECRETS SUCKERS. YOU’RE ALL GHETTO MOTHERFUCKERS. GHETTO.
Dispatch 2
Painting soon.
Writer life 3
So I am going to be busy polishing my manuscript as well as, creating unpublished work—for, exclusivity.
Strangers and stranger
I command you not to kill yourself; “Don’t.” Because I say so so not today. Not tomorrow. And not ever.
Public
When minding your own business and a guy walks past and bursts a sudden laugh so to make his girl friend feel better about herself; “What a hero.”
Writer life 2
I’ve already edited and printed out a first draft copy of my whole writing for New Year’s resolution, before 2020.
Charity
How to socially tame the hater. Throw them some crumbs of evidence here and there.
Kabbalah
Stranger; “Are you a Kabbalist.”
Me; “Yes.”
Stranger; “Explain.”
Me; “Well I don’t give out this kind of knowledge to a world which isn’t ready for it.”
Vision 4
When people in my past treated me as though they had OPTIONS. Hold her, hold her.
Responsibility
People pointing fingers at anything which moves that isn’t them. And passing the buck, wankers.
Cowards
Yeah, cowards. The cowards are cowards see you can’t blame them for being cowards; I mean, they are cowards. They are what they are, cowards. Cowards.
Princess life 2
Stranger; “Aren’t you envious/jealous.”
Me; “How.”
Self-respect 4
Death is inevitable, we’re all going to die one day. Now whether you want to die with respect, for yourself, or as just another scum of the earth that is totally up to you. Remember, death is inevitable and we are all going to die.
Community
People come in and go like there’s no tomorrow. People make it or break it just for a blow. All show. People come in and go as a list in a death row; shut your mouth, comply, and keep your head low.
Self-respect 3
Once in a while, we as creatives are being tested with a cutting choice—who am I.
Writer life
“I’ve already edited and printed out a first draft copy of my whole writing for New Year’s resolution, before 2020.” Psh, with my eyes closed.
Cons
One who constantly suspect others of wrongdoings are often themselves their perfect subject—a word to the wise.
Smile 3
Life is like a video game, you get to choose which difficulty level you wanna spawn in. I choose hardcore so when I die I’m out, bitches.
Not me 2
One of the easiest things you can do in life is to let others or yourself change who you are.
Not me
Some people are given a second chance in life and instead of; take the lesson from it, get corrected, and move the fuck on—instead, they change who they are and let themselves die out.
Rebels
They say in life we need to take risks; Everyday I pour water next to my computer—what do you want from me.
