Dear Lord, I know I’m supposed to be pure and holy; made in your image and likeness. I really am on that path but I have a couple of things I need to ask: Can you please make me great at sex? I’m definitely waiting till my wedding day but can you make me andContinue reading “My most carnal prayer requests”

Twinkle little star
Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are. I wonder if you’ll crack under pressure and return to your old, unshinny ways. If you’ll fold up and wait for Mama Star to come find you. I wonder if the little time you’ve spent as a shiny star has gotten to your head andContinue reading “Twinkle little star”
“I’m authentic”
AUTHENTIC ! ORIGINAL! UNINFLUENCED?! I think not! While I danced to the beat of some of the most soulful songs of the 70’s & 80’s, I had an epiphany. It’s funny because I wasn’t even drinking, so I guess this is divine. What I’m about to tell came directly from the Grapevine. Are you readyContinue reading ““I’m authentic””
Me, my body & I
Time and time again, I say I don’t care, but suddenly, I feel weak, drowsy, and can’t seem to leave my cocoon; called room. I say I’m okay and even try to force a smile, but somehow I can’t manage to keep it plastered. My body betrays me. I scream at it! If you areContinue reading “Me, my body & I”
The Unknown
For someone who’s afraid of the unknown, I’ve never been scared of death. Maybe its because I’m not completely in the dark about what happens when we die.When we die, it stops. Everything stops; the pain, the pleasure, even the emptiness. I believe that death is the end of life here and I guess thatContinue reading “The Unknown”
When pigs fly
Where on earth is Dumbo? If you had told me about the corona virus a year ago, I probably would’ve thought you were joking because “that’s never gonna happen!”, but here I am, three weeks into a nationwide lockdown and all I can think about are things that could never ever happen. Here’s my listContinue reading “When pigs fly”
Moving forward
I made a promise to you and I; to never stop moving forward. On my lowest days, I look back to see if you’re running in the right direction and I smile to myself knowing that you are. You’ve run so far ahead of me that my attempts to keep up with you almost madeContinue reading “Moving forward”
The Invincible man
One Saturday morning, I was sitting in the backseat as my dad drove to the hospital. We were pulled over by some police officers; we were supposed to be at home observing the environmental sanitation, not driving down the road. My dad wound down his window and slickly stuck out his medical card, I’m notContinue reading “The Invincible man”
Telenovela-type problems
Sometimes I’m lazy, other times; it’s hard to be productive because everything is just unnecessarily difficult. I long for the days where life is simple and my most pressing problem is what charity I want to donate to or deciding who I want to cast as the lead in my movie. Honestly, I really don’tContinue reading “Telenovela-type problems”
Stop asking about my sexual orientation!
I think it’s weird that most conversations entail the question, “ARE YOU GAY?” it’s such a rude and absurd question. If you’re not trying to get with me, then I see no reason why you should ask me that ….PERIOD! Many people need to understand that gender and sexual orientation are two different things. Yes,Continue reading “Stop asking about my sexual orientation!”
