WAKEBOARDING!!! Runnin' b-ball, snowboardin/skiin, boxing, music, movies, cooking for people, Salad fingers episodes, fetal spoon, Sock Puppet Porn, Playing brides maid to vegas weddings, possibly triathalons this summer but my bike is broken....
I'd like to meet:
street dancers, Michael Bibby and Rahzel Aaron Brooks, Jordan Catlano..What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
The Search
how did you find me
when i searched for you my whole life
as i grew and molded
learned and learned to unlearn
slowly perfecting myself
to one day consume your heart
looking back now i realize
i wasn't looking for you
but looking for myself first
and now that i know who i am
i clearly see that you didnt find me at all
but instead it was i
who found what i finally wanted
