WHATS BEEN HAPPENING...
You may or might have known, but like most of us, I'm still going through my own personal Trials & Tribulations/
Over the past 6 months now, here and there, I've had and discovered some revelations, realizations and renovations,
about myself. Which I'll go into more detail at a later time.
REMINDER!
If your visiting in or around NJ, Tonight. Mon. June 21st I'll be competing again, culminate enough pts. for spot on the MMAC NJ Slam team for 2011. In the underground Poetry Slam. Feat. will be J-Skillz & Rob Hylton.
