About Me

(Hay, this is Apollo. So what can I say about me. I wear alot of hats. I'm a graduate from OPRF, Triton, CSU and ISU. I'm currently workin' at a nice spot up in Chicago. I'm also a freelance poet and I'm an usher, Sunday school teacher, and a deacon at the greatest church in Oak Park/Chicago... RCCI (formerly CCW)! Who says that church is boring. Wanna know more about me, then hit me up.) -(Apollo:

My Interests

(I like poetry, creating instrumentals, playing videogames, playing basketball, listening to music, watching wrestling, hanging out with my family and friends, watching a good movie, going on the internet with my friends, going to church, getting my praise on. Ya know? Stuff like that.)

I'd like to meet:

(Jesus Christ. And I pray that I'm doing everything I can so that it can happen. I refuse to live my life and at the end of it all, I won't be able to be with Jesus and to suffer in Hell. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm the only one that thinks like that.)

Music:

(Anything that's good. I'll listen to anything. I don't like pop music though or stuff on the radio that's overplayed. Gotta be original and gotta be good! Here's a few tunes that I made up. Hit me up if you like the tunes.)

Movies:

(Anything that's good.)

Television:

(Anything that is decent. I don't watch smut and stuff like that. It gotta have action, drama, or some suspense.)

Books:

(The bible and anything with poetry.)

Heroes:

(Jesus, My momma, and pastor Alonzo Harris.)

The Benefits in Pain?!?!
