  Dec 2020 Coffee with Cream

And she glanced at the water that pooled in the shallows of the street.
And she glanced at the lights that glowed off the water.
And she glanced at the buildings that hid stories of loss and life and love.
And she didn't get it.
She didn't hear the people in conversation around her
She didn't feel the cool air sweeping down on her
She didn't see the love in this little painting.
But how could she see the colors and not understand them?

stay here
(on the Sofa)
  feel the Beat
   (and never go)

be my boy
(everlasting)
  at the end
  (talk around)
    secrets of love
Context: This is a poem i wrote for a lofi album I'm working on. Each line is a song title and the album name will be Sofa Beats (like beats to listen to while doing nothing) Let me know what you think!
Granny pointed to the lesbian couple.
Saying the girl who wore the suit is the man,
The other wore a wedding dress is the woman.
I was truly offended!
Until I ask Granny reasons,
I understood her intention wasn’t to harm.
She understands LGBTQ through her norms
and heterosexual eyes.
What could of happened?
If she had tolerance for LGBTQ but we didn’t have tolerance towards Granny.

Viral video of white Granny saying very homophobia statements avoided 😅
How we to became a united community if we prejudices to the older generation that they believe is wrong or a stereotype itself. We need to hear them out and show tolerance and love like the same way we except from them. Tolerance works both ways.
What’s more poisonous?


Father drowning in barrels of wine
Or people pretending making it seem fine
Or drawing different conclusions
for the lack of open communication.
Or the raw white elephant head on the table
and the fact we just have to swallow it up.
Keep sipping on the resentment in our cups.
It’s an usual dinner party but the situation is unusual. We are not going to talk about it- White Elephant
Of all the people
In all the world
I had to bump into you

Shame you were driving a  12 wheeler
And I was on my bike

Story of my life
