I’m a wordsmith But in Arabic I don’t know How to speak Couldn’t find myself To your home Without stumbling Through language But no one at the airport Would know I’m a poet Nor would a shopkeep Suspect me in English Not now, at least Do I know your tongue But someday I will knowContinue reading “Mother Tongues”

Dead Ringer – Journal 12/15/17
Hopefully, my final final at Pierce College has come to pass. That’s what this last weeks of truancy and lateness to Radio Reality City has been. Particularly yesterday and Tuesday. This week has been a blur, partially because of increased work hours and due to the formerly mentioned finals. I have this awful habit ofContinue reading “Dead Ringer – Journal 12/15/17”
No More Heroes – Journal 7/3/17
I’ve accidentally just done some math that says if I play my cards perfectly, I’ll have grown to an audience of over 15,000 by the end of this year. With the exponential growth of this place I would still be surprised to, but I’m staying humble. No one got anywhere with great expectations, Mr. Dickens.Continue reading “No More Heroes – Journal 7/3/17”
Whatever – Journal 5/1/17
You guys are the god damn best. From the start of 2017 to today, I have officially gotten more visitors than I did all of 2016. Thank you all so much for being here.

A Proper Adult – Journal 4/26/17
Yesterday I woke up early and acted like an adult for once. How often is it that I, a 19 year old in Washington state, get out and get to do things I might want to do? Not often, it turns out! Got out, went to a coffee spot for what they call a sunriseContinue reading “A Proper Adult – Journal 4/26/17”
Dude… – Journal 4/12/17
Every so often I will write a poem and think to myself that it’s going to be funny posting that up for everyone to see later on. Today was one of those days. Yet with all things indecent I had a moment where I thought I’d bury “It’s Nothing” today by posting a photograph orContinue reading “Dude… – Journal 4/12/17”
Increasingly Verbose – Journal 4/10/17
Man, that last entry was really weird, wasn’t it? Lot of cursing and unnecessary stuff, but I was EXCITED! Not an awful lot has been happening here besides not being able to post much. Professional and personal life can get in the way of posting since I’m not a massive corporation! Like I’m human orContinue reading “Increasingly Verbose – Journal 4/10/17”
Hello Spring Quarter – Journal 4/5/17
Today was the first day of ADVANCED WRITING. Holy shit! First day! I made a fucking joke about writing Dead Kennedys fanfiction and it went well! I feel so at home! So in this advanced writing class (ADVANCED because it’s fucking A D V A N C E D as SHIT), we only workshop! FuckContinue reading “Hello Spring Quarter – Journal 4/5/17”
Transparency – Journal 3/27/17
So where was I this weekend? Why, I was in North Bend, Washington, with my lovely girlfriend! Spent the weekend with her. Lotta poems gonna come out of that, for sure. North Bend is absolutely gorgeous, and if you ever get the chance to go through the Snoqualmie Pass, you ought to take it ifContinue reading “Transparency – Journal 3/27/17”
