    About this ebook

    Abe Lincoln had several breaks. Isaac Newton did too. Tolstoy and Beethoven were cracked at times. Churchill, Van Gogh, and Hemingway...cracked as well. Being sucked into the abyss and spat out the other side is other worldly unpleasant. There are gems that await, though.

      Turning Black Queer Rage Into Black Queer Joy

      Oct 1, 2021

      I have never been comfortable setting a place at the table for my anger. I always invited passion and excitement in and tolerated anxiety at the time, believing it was a by-product of my two favourite guests. But where was contentment, calm and joy?

      Who Among You

      Burn Me

      I Dig

      The Taming

      *Who Among You*

      Who among you is just like me?

      A stretched ligament of anxiety?

      A rubber banded tendon from self…to society?

      Who among you cries out, just fuckin’ love me?

      Addicted to addiction…oh, but do it anonymously.

      Feel the pain…spew the anger…unleash the rage…

      Stomp yourself back down into your cage with that fungal fucked foot in your brain.

      Who among you shines within,

      but fears tin snipping the wire of the chicken coop you’re in?

      Maybe…just maybe…it’s because another coop exists outside
