Paying Forward

(picture is of the legendary Kaspers hot dog stand in North Oakland)
So last Saturday I was running errands and ended up at the "rich" grocery store in my neighborhood in Antelope, Ca. In my neighborhood there are two grocery stores. The more expensive one, the Bel-Air market, typically has a couple Mercedes, a Lexus or two, and a few BMW's parked in front of it. the typical customer is older and affluent and one who prioritizes their time and convenience over price, and though normally that w...

In a world hostile to little girls...


In a world hostile to little girls

I found myself raising 3.

I found happiness in their softness

I found challenge in their intellect-

Vigor in their perspective.

New perspective on life.

I found Life and art;

art and love.

 

I found public announcements of their arrival discomforting.

I found suspicious faces everywhere.

I found alarming unencumbered glances at the playground.

I found motive and cause for potential retributions

I found fear of loss untold

Loss of all sense of control

Faith in the strength of ...

Casey's on the way

The actual due date is march 17, but I've been hoping she'd come before St. Paties. I guess after years of ignoring it, I'll finally be celebrating the Irish festivities. I named her Casey not long after determining that she was a girl. Since she's our third, we wanted to see if I had bucked the daughter trend. With Naiya and Janae, we waited till delivery day to determine pink or blue, but with Casey, the decision to peek was an easy one.

I guess part of that ease stems from the fact that we ...

muse poem #1

I'm
smelling, touching, chasing, jonesing, tasting,air left in her wake.
I'm
inhaling, seizing, absorbing, believing, gasping breathingthe promise of aches
I'm
seeking, needing, reaching, grasping praying fastingIn the direction of fate
I'm leaping laughing teaching asking speaking to each miracle we make.

Inspiration

She is a fickle lover
You must grab her while her attention’s light is upon you,
or she will certainly move on.
Delay and you will lose her affections;
force her near and she will defy you every time.
She will dance in your dreams at her whim,
leaving you lusting for her very essence
once she has gone.
Heart hollowing in her absence,
her presence inspires greatness.
So pursue her with resolve and patience,
Learn her season and mood.
Divine gift of reverence,
for the artists soul, food.

Less than a month to go....

And I'm sitting here reflecting on the fact that after raising the first two for the past 14 years, its about to be diaper changing time again.  today was the baby shower.  it turned out great, despite the torrential rains.  And just as I am getting ready for the birth of a new life, Me and my group have given birth figuratively to our debut album.  
I don't think Either Drew or myself are the type of guys to give anyone a hard sell of any product.  With our music, we hope people get it based off...
