POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
Phantom Zone is a voyage into the sea of uncertainty. Blindly navigating this vast and shifting expanse, the author is bombarded by turbulence provoked by heartbreak, unresolved trauma and brief spells of depression.

As familiar shores disappear, he is forced to reckon with change — to release what once was in order to make space for what is. Through moments of collapse, reflection, and quiet resolve. Phantom Zone places the author’s innermost thoughts and emotions under a microscope, revealing the raw, often unspoken realities of inner transformation.

This is an intimate exploration of liminality, loss, and self-awareness — a record of existing in the in-between, and learning how to remain there without losing oneself.

Maternal is written from the memory of a child—from the point of view of a witness who was also the object of hatred.
In the author’s world, it is taboo for children to speak openly about mistreatment at the hands of their mothers. Silence is expected. Loyalty is enforced.
The author does not comply.
This collection exposes the distortion of motherhood, the inheritance of trauma, and the quiet violence hidden behind obligation and bloodline.

Maternal is not written for comfort. 
It is written to tell the truth.

“Maternal” is available for purchase! Link in bio

Cap and Gun

Straight A student with a 4.0 GPA in school
When he hit the streets he gotta clutch his tool  A stand out academic achiever within those walls,
As his name's announced for honor roll he receives a thunderous round of applause. Pencil in hand running up his grades, 
when he walks the streets though, its fight, flight, or a one way trip to the grave
Juggling projects and presentations while surviving the projects and resisting temptation, the last thing on his mind is highschool graduation

Teachers telling him to prepare for college while his mom is telling him to stay out of trouble and get a job, 
the priest is telling him to have faith and accept God
plus his plug keeps calling and it's all causing his veins to pulse and making his head throb
Can't serve two masters let alone four, he's being stretched thin and doesn't know what to do anymore
Throw away a promising future or abandon familiarity and home for greater pursuits ? 
Walk the aisle with a tasseled cap on his head, or run the streets, catch a hollowed cap in the head and have his mom frying fish for funeral bread ? These are the choices a lot of us have to make, with our lives on the line and everything at stake
but somehow we get it done
no it isn't fun choosing between the cap and the gun
