Strolling Bedstuy streets, searching for that third high, the first and second lacked the passion to incite me to climax, rising action meeting falling action. The books on my shelf mock me, and I mock them back.
Books: "You thought you were going to be a professor and graduate from college".
Me: "You think I'm going to read you today."
Armed with almonds, the Holy Qu'ran, Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars, a smile, a prayer, and a semi- erect penis I charge the day and it runs away from me as we play tag. I laugh in between sips of my white wine sprinkled with cinnamon. My past used to be so present as if it were my future, it's where it needs to be now. I need to find my future, I get to create it, or so they say.
They-Say Vision - Res
They say adulthood is difficult, it's just childhood in drag, when it gets to scary I make a scary face at it.

This is a poem. You write searing hungry poetry Marz. Nice to see you again!
It is good that you're back. Hope you're doing well. Miss ya.
Man, you are a writer if ever I've read one. Don't be gone so long.
