About Me

i roam chicago, not no nomad, home is everywhere i go. from oak park to lakefront, heat waves to waist-deep snow, graveyards to hospi-tolls, two flats and cousins' clothes. 53rd and dead end road rots like the river, suffocating like my sister practicing drill team moves, never met her but i miss her. kiss graves, lonely like rose on first date, silent like first day of fourth grade but safe like first base. chi weather, the end of days, get right with your creator, call the caper quits, savior: save insurance papers. cus we dont give a f**k, to press luck: tuck you in two pj's. pray for days and say grace, made it past yesterday. but tomorrow's a new novel: horror, suspense, or drama, comma, comma, comma, comma, suspense, comma, drama... welcome.
