Take Me Away

take me away

to where palm trees

provide shade,

where sun rays radiate

a Midas' touch on my skin

reflection on my outer

of my glow from within,

wanderlust stricken

with no other cure

I feel like I'm stuck in this cocoon

of a room

drowning in familiarity

I need to break free soon.

feeling my last gasp of

 tedious monotony

ho hum hurrahs,

commonplace consistencies

will never be enough

to cure

this bore

that has taken over me,

I need to feel liberated

experience things I've never seen.

to strive to survive

outside of the box of desolate despondency,

these average expectations I will never see

because they will never be

me.

I love surprises.

I think there should be more of them in life... good ones. An unexpected rush of happiness.. of adrenaline. To break up the monotony of the day to day... 

The Truth About Soulmates

 

interesting 

...and I read the whole thing.

I will, however, make my way out for One Mic: Hip Hop Culture Worldwide presents:

Thai's Orchid Kitchen

2314 Pennsylvania Ave, SE DC

4pm

 

and

 

Lions and Lionesses: A Look at Jazz in a Hip Hop World

Both events are free to the public and take place on Sunday March 30th.

( SIDE NOTE: Are your wants making you fall short of attaining your needs? )

Split This Rock Poetry Festival

I've never heard of this event, but it looks pretty cool.

 $120 for a four-day pass/ $50 per day

A little steep for my budget right now, (I'll stick with $5 open mics at Busboys and Poets) but I'll be sure to scour YouTube for what I'm sure will be great footage from this next week. ;)



Best thing I've heard this week, so far; 

 Don't make money to spend. Make money to save. 

Such a simple concept. I have some changes to make.. habits to break.
