Decided to take my twists out (even tho they had been locing for about two months) because I didn't like how I had sectioned them. A bit of a perfectionist, ik. Anyway, gonna wash my hair tomorrow and see if I can get somebody to twist my hair for me. Gn! 😘 (at Alexandria, Virginia)

"Amara, your eccentricity makes you unique and incredibly interesting. Never lose the side of you that is detached from trends, fads, and waves because sometimes our generation lives life wrong. Continue to hone in on your poetic talent, and your physical abilities on the track!" • • • Alia, thank you so much for those words, and thank you for passing on the torch to me and others. I'm so glad to have represented DUEC this year as a student, as a poet, and as a person who just really loves writing. I am excited to be a leader for next year and show DU what DUEC's really made of. #dontsleeponusDU (at Dillard University)

"I'll call you Nube... Short for Nubian Queen," he said. And she smiled. He had a funny way of making her do that all the time, even when she didn't want to. Sometimes she cried, But he wiped her tears and made her laugh. He made her heart feel full, and she was his blessing. 🌼 #poetry #somethingslight #backatit (at Alexandria, Virginia)
