Pretty early on in the writing of the novel Trampoline, I ran up on the song "Trampoline" by Joe Henry. I'm not sure what he would say he's singing about, but the lyrics about getting high and "this time I'm not coming down" made sense to me in thinking about a place where escape is so much on the minds of so many. And how that escape can take place through physical flight and/or by getting high. Plus trampolines are everywhere around here. I made a writing soundtrack that stuck with me through the whole writing process. I'll probably put more of the songs here, since when you have a blog you have to put up something. 11/25/2019 06:44:58 am
I guess, women also have their own norms and discussion in this matter. There are still a lot of stereotyping cases when it comes to gender. Physical strength is just one of the basis we look into in labelling someone as "man". It does not matter to me on what gender we have as long as we know how to respect and give equality. Even equality is hard to define. We based our standards on those physical attributes we see. 6/20/2020 09:01:18 am

It's an incredible and elegant work. You indeed are doing real art, each of them is a unique conteiner of something beyond words. Congratulations. 9/23/2020 01:51:47 pm
This is total crap, I was brought up in the project in marble hill as well as 4 blocks away from the Apollo theatre and attended Harriet Tubman elementary school. I was one of 8 Puerto Rican families in the entire neighborhood. I saw and lived things that were horrible and that no child should ever have to be subjected to. I tell my story and have actually did some Rapping myself but profanity is an option and just because others spoke like that around you or you were brought up around that type of behavior and vocabulary does not Merritt it being necessary to share your life story . You use profanity in your music because you choose to. Let’s be honest because it not necessary at all. 10/10/2020 02:22:03 am
