I got lucky and got driven out 2 hours to see @frankocean perform at WAYHOME festival this sunday. The most beautiful concert I’ve been to that i can remember. This is the only way I could come close to describing it to anyone.

A children’s book about what it is to truly be free. In the words of Nina Simone “No Fear! No Fear.” Feel fearlessly . If there are any typos kindly point them out I wrote this late last night .

On another note.

And here we are again. Same anxiety resurected . Deepest nightmares, reaffirmed as a reality . I never want to be back here again. I'm scared most days if I'm being honest . I have to quiet my rage all the fucking time . I have to show up and smile in spaces where I'd rather sob . #AltonSterling #stopkillercops

I’ve been thinking a lot about stylized light.

I wrote a poem.

If you can’t read my hand writing it goes : 

I think of all the stars 

I think of all your scars

I think of my mistakes

I think of why things break 

I think of what time takes .

I think this is love .
