Akdown
It was my Junior year of high school, and I belonged to a group of friends that were obsessed with video games and professional wrestling. We weren’t meatheads, per se, but when we got together, we often acted as such. I would go to my friend Jonathan’s house, we would fire up his Sega Saturn, and we would play these terrible professional wrestling video games. They would handle poorly, the graphics wouldn’t impress anybody, and it was very stupid, juvenile, and overall harmless fun. One such week, we used the create-a-wrestler function to create our own personal and horrific abominations. We would program their moves, their finishers, their celebrations, everything; we fashioned them after psychopathic clowns in the vein of the Insane Clown Posse (we were stupid teenagers; I’ll apologize for nothing). We played our characters against Stone Cold Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, The Rock… and we had a blast.

Introduction A while back Vocal dropped its limits on certain communities for certain challenges. While part of me was against this being permanent, I have come around to the thought that this could be beneficial at times for creators, including myself.

CHAPATIS.
Is the way to a man’s heart through the stomach? I grew up being told this left and right. My mother would pinch me hard when I over-salted the soup for dinner. She would spank my head when the rice overcooked, and I dreaded the days she probed me to prepare ‘ugali’ which is an African dish.

My First Hair Cut.
My mother had warned me that people had the tendency to hold onto past experiences. Despite how detrimental their effect may be. My mother had also said, that it is these stored memoirs that eventually can shape one. Like a touch on the surface of the skin, deep down like poison running through the veins.

Grade School Dickinson
I must have been around eight when I wrote my first poem. At least, the first poem I can remember writing. There was a bunny and a snowman and it was complete with an artistic crayon interpretation. I’m sure my Mother even has it stored somewhere for safekeeping. I loved to rhyme, and I’m sure there were poems that came before this one I remember the most. There have been a literal hundreds of poems since then, I can state that with absolute confidence.
