Wednesday Wine & Write

Re-discovered this piece I wrote at fifteen. It was for my cousin Donte. 


Eighteen years of life,
An eternity of smiles & laughs
Fade into my past.
My broken heart is screaming 
And I can't heal it's pain.
My soul is carrying a burden
It bears a lonely stain.
Just leave me alone,
Just let me grieve.
Faith has been shaken
Not sure what I believe .. 

Knob Creek 9yo (cheated on wine again)

This Detroit-based gem is a real one, as explained on her 2018 "No Problems" album . I want her to be great. I love her story, her voice (& accent), and her music. Sasha Go Hard tells the all-too-familiar plight of a young Black woman with a daughter to mold. "Done Being Nice" & "Shake" are two of her most popular singles and my personal favorites. These tracks are found on her second album of 2018, "Make America Ratchet Again", which is obviously an amazing title, and the anthem this nation actually deserves.  "The Porch" on MARA is a perfect song, descriptive of hood life and nostalgia.
