Master of None
I think that I’ve seen issues that everyone else has run into during the quarantine, and that is that I have figured out that I have so much time on my hands. Frankly, I’m not exactly sure where this time was being spent before the shutdown, but I have realized that it was a significant…

Three Things I Know To Be True
Three Things I Know To Be True. 1. I know that I am tired. I’m tired of settling for whatever is less for me. I know that I’m tired of worrying things that I have no control over. I’m tired of knowing that I can control more things than I think and still acting like…

Letter from your pops
Letter from your pops. I hope that one day I’m able to read this to you when you get older, but in case I’m not, you can have someone else read on my behalf. I want to give you an idea of who I was before you came along in my life. I may have…

I’m A Poet & I Didn’t Even Know It
Rose are red, violets are blue. I have been listening to a ton of country music, and all I think about is you. I fucked so many things up in my life, I still don’t know what the heck I’m supposed to do. I made so many promises that I didn’t keep, and I never…

In Case You Ever Forgot
Today I write with a heavy heart. I’ve mentioned it before, but I will say it one more time. I have not done enough or done my part to process change in this world. Since I could remember, I have said I am on this Earth for some reason, and that justice would be something…

Letter to my fears
I bet you didn’t think I would become the person I became, huh? I bet you didn’t think I would make it to the age of 21 with a good job and good credit. I bet you didn’t think that I would be able to say I still have big dreams. I bet you thought…

My first paycheck
I still remember the first time I ever clocked into work for the first time. I had done jobs here and there and went to the store to help my dad on Saturdays to sell tacos just to put a little bit of money in my pocket. I was cute, plus I was a hard…

Not Knowing Is No Longer Good Enough
Not Knowing Is No Longer Good Enough. I have always tried to be the person who tries to give political answers, especially in a workplace setting. I’ve always started each of my sentences with the same phrase, “I am not an expert on the topic.” That’s because I don’t want to come off as arrogant…
