Favorite Things

Insomnia
Chest pains
Nausea
And Facial rain

These are a few of my favorite things

Perspiring palms
Stumbling steps
Wondering words
Fumbling fingertips

These are a few of my favorite things

Constant physical reminders that hold true
Repetitious bodily habits providing the clues
To not only the realization of how much need, want and care I carry for you
But also the acknowledgement of the strength your presence gives,
leaving me to be a mere human being without you

These are my favorite things
Just a few
That conjure up the epiphany of how much
I miss you

Momma's Boy

Today my Mom turns 50!... Well, on paper anyway. She looks and acts as if she isn't a day over 30. However, she has the wisdom of a 87 year old. I am the man I am today because of the things instilled in me from my mother. (& and you too Dad lol) I wanted to write a poem for my mom expressing my gratitude and love for her. Ironically, there was too much to say so I didn't have the time nor the words to do so. So with that being said, Happy 50th Mom & may there be 50 more birthdays for you to celebrate. LOVE YA!

SOTW (March 8th-14th)

The Song of the Week is "Over" by Drake... The 1st single of his highly-anticipated album "Thank Me Later" is playing everywhere at the moment... & when I say everywhere I MEAN EVERYWHERE... That's the kind of buzz Drake has had for the past year and a half. I do enjoy this song, however I'm afraid "Thank Me Later" will not meet the yearlong hype its been given... I guess we'll have to wait and see... Until then here's:

"Over" by Drake

Best Line: "They treat me like a legend, am I really this cold? I'm really too young to be feeling this old"

J-Rellz Forever

According to my younger sibling Sept. 19th needs to be marked on calendars Worldwide as "Jerel Day". Contrary to his wild semi-self-absorbent belief, March 7th is a day that all need to celebrate. It's the day my little brother was born. Jerel (aka the coolest guy born in the 90s) is a highly talented musician and producer who has been an inspiration to me since he came onto this earth. He has no idea the impact he has had on my life and I greatly appreciate everything he has shown me. Even though, the first maybe 10 years of his life he and I didn't get along too well, Jerel has still taught me how to be a responsible man and how no matter what you gotta love ya family... even if you don't like them sometimes. So with that being said I'd like to say Happy 19th Birthday Jerel. Thanks 4 being the crazy, smart, mean, inspirational person with a sick sense of humor that you are. Lol... Love ya bro! As an ode to "J-Rellz" I'm posting a video of him being my "inspiration"... Since I am his Biggest Fan! This is from 07... One of my favorites... & also a video of Stax N Rellz "bonding" Enjoy! Happy Birthday Jerel! J-Rellz 4EVER!
