Shihan makes me realize how 'un-perfect' life can be sometimes but at the end of the day we have to be appreciative to the blessings that surround us. We are all flawed people with minds & lives so different from each other that it can sometimes be scary but we are all people, all the same in little ways & a part of this large human race. We need to look past the narrow alley ways & open our mind to more than just what is in front of us. This piece not only reminds me of life's 'flaws' but also of life's very own trials & tribulations. Each & everyone of us has them & it is inevitable to want to try to avoid them, every day & every night we come across them. Shihan, preach. Life is like a balancing act, indeed.
Here's my 2nd blog. I strictly created this blog to be able to share more of my poetry & more of my favorite videos from Def Jam Poetry or spoken word in general with the blogging world. I hope that you enjoy & respect what is posted here, as well as my own responses & feedback. My interest in this subject is a beautiful thing to share so I hope that you do truly take interest in this as much as I do. Follow me & always look out for a post every hour or so. Thank you.

"They paint the perfect picture, raw like graffiti written hard on the walls of poverty filled streets but tasteful like a Leonardo Da Vinci masterpiece. Created by eloquence & colored by their desires, a love like theirs is like an eternal fire. Flawless they are not for they are ignorant & arrogant upon their own light, but their perfect picture always painted with grace is what makes them take flight. Beauty behold, it is incapacitating. Beauty behold, it is never demoralizing. They look each other & realize, this is by far the most encompassing feeling & leaves us a bit dazed like we're free-wheeling. It's inevitable they balance each other's lives & were meant to be. It's inevitable their love love is ripe & as deep as the blue seas. Yes, they paint the perfect picture, raw like graffiti written hard on the walls of poverty filled streets but tasteful like a Leonardo Da Vinci masterpiece."
