https://ovenroastedlove.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/love-within-or-lack-thereof
Finding aloha in Los Angeles. Love Within – or lack thereof. June 7, 2010 at 11:10 pm · Filed under Session XVII - Creative Nonfiction. I have been horrible these past few days. Selfish, biting, horrible. Right now I am still reading Bell Hooks and it’s taking me a while to get past a couple of pages because reading her makes me realize how much work needs to be done and undone. Even writing the above sentences reiterate demeaning words I was raised on. Papa what did you do to me? Ultimately I don’...

Cloud Cover | It was at that Age
https://rytong3.wordpress.com/2012/08/20/cloud-cover
It was at that Age. When Poetry Came in Search of Us. By It was at that Age. Draft 1= = = = =. Today i raced against a rain cloud,. Its dark underbelly sliding across the glass skylight,. Sweating drops before the downpour,. As i weaved threading my line between dreams, 470s and icons. For a while we kept pace as the sky dimmed,. Setting the depressingly perfect north western mood. I could hear the cackle of a grunge guitar scratch its way through the sky,. And maybe i’ll look up long enough,. Rebecca Pe...

Onetime March 28, 2011. I went on a date with a white girl who gave me the best compliment ever. She said, “You speak English very well, you don’t even have an accent.”. Leave a Comment ».

https://ovenroastedlove.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/love-fail-23801983714
Finding aloha in Los Angeles. June 28, 2010 at 4:25 am · Filed under Session XVII - Creative Nonfiction. I’m failing at love but what’s new. What if I just let my dreams go. What if I just said forget it, none of this is worth it. Just those sentences alone and I’m crying. Then my mother walks in asking for homework help and I can’t stop. I have to cook, I haven’t finished eating. The other day I had to remind myself that she was not a burden and that I had to be a blessing. Being raised by violent f...

Finding aloha in Los Angeles. June 11, 2010 at 11:27 pm · Filed under Session XVII - Creative Nonfiction. Bell hooks points out love is a practice. It will never be perfect but it can be refined. For the past few days I am reminding myself of my worth, affirming myself and being firm in what I deserve. But I want so bad. I need this so bad. My existence my sanity and my dreams are riding on two fucking pieces of cartilage that just want the chance to prove themselves. No comments yet ». You are commentin...

I recognized the weaknesses that were absent in my life and I saw no need to suddenly have a father figure in my life after my step-father, mentors, and countless teachers had to step in. This is all I have to say in remembering him. 8212;———. No comments yet ». Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public).

Finding aloha in Los Angeles. Health and whack doctors. May 13, 2010 at 7:31 pm · Filed under Session XVII - Creative Nonfiction. Drove so damn far to see a laryngologist who ultimately made me feel uncomfortable and told me everything I already knew and charged me $30. I’m unemployed so that just set me back in groceries. Then the drive out there made my sinuses so clogged up that I became more cranky and depressed. So last night I went on Yelp. And now I have an appointment with a 3rd laryngologist.
