A poem I wrote on August 15th, 2011. From the forthcoming ebook Loveness: Poems from the Heart. Today by sirmuMsila today I’m feeling like… a little out of the box. a little outside the of the norm. Outside of everything… everybody. The news makes me scared, angry, pensive, jittery. the drama. the opinions. the pop elation. feel like if I turn it off I’ll miss something. I flip through my

Today it rained.When I got tired from chasing her she turned around... and I looked away.And then it rained..And I didn't want to get away from it. I didn't want to shelter myself from missing her. I wanted to stand in it, head up, let it wash over my face. Today infatuation is washed away.The fully realized idea of loving outside the self is blocking out the sun.Obsession and jealousy do not

To be an Artist is to find beauty in the things we take for granted. I look for it everyday. It is how I stay sane and find worth in it all.  Money is societal construct. Art is a natural construct.  -goRealer the make up done on Heads Up was some of the best I've seen. backstage: Shoe Story, Theater of Note, LA beautiful sky 14th street looking west Ghandi, my man, Union Sq.

Behind the door of passion, lust, infatuation lies an even darker place where few choose to venture. A place, akin to unselfish loyalty, cemented with desire, yet more sinister, more angelic. Love is the misguided thought yet it's truth is a sugary sweet, teeth clenched facsimile of said thought that will knock you down to get at your heart. The energy of this dark is the wrath of all of what

Just watched Bill Maher. I admit I'm a fan. Along with his sensible take on the politics of the country, he calls out racism on the tea party, Rush Limbaugh and Carl Paladino which I appreciate. He says there is major racism against President Obama in this country but then he dresses up like a pimped out Obama named Barry White House and does a routine. Granted it is funny.

The British Petroleum oil spill in the Gulf is a great indicator of the shortening of America’s attention span. When it was first reported, no one could grasp the sheer magnitude of the destruction. Then when it became clear that this was the single most devastating man-made disaster in recent time we were shocked and angry. Then when a month later the rate of oil spilling in the Gulf hadn’t

What a run we have been having! The cast is phenomenal! The director is patient and highly effective as is all the designers! This process has been grueling, arduous and whatever cool word that can be synonymous with difficult. But the result is just breathtaking!! I love theater! Film could never replace the energy that is created from the stage. I wish I could harness it to have it run my life.

When I first started going to the Nuyorican Poets Cafe from my house way up in the Bronx the train ride was a killer. It's approximately 53 minutes from the moment I step on the #2 train at 238th street in the Bronx until I step out of the train station somewhere in the east village. I used to make use of this time by writing a poem to perform, on my way down. Pen in hand, pressed into my journal

This past week auditions were held for the workshop production of the play i've written called PARADOX OF THE URBAN CLICHÉ. There are no words to describe the feelings I've been going through as a whole. Anxiety, excitement, sadness, overwhelming joy... etc... It has been a rollercoaster ride that is only just beginning. Some really incredible actors came into read for me. There was a moment when

Tonight I was sitting in the back of a cab on my cell making plans with a photographer for him to shoot portraits of me for tomorrow (Sunday). I explained to him that I would have to go to church with my mother in the morning but that I was free for the rest of the day. Evidently i had been overheard by the cab driver because as I began to exit the cab he said to me, "please brother remember my

I'm not quite sure of the reasons that lead to Andrew Koenig decided to take his own life. But knowing that he was a successful actor in his youth and hadn't worked much lately, I can guess. I didn't want to get on my soapbox again about this very fickle career path that I've chosen because ultimately it was my choice. I was in nursing school when it all started for me.

February 12, 2009 will mark the 200th birthday for Abraham Lincoln and Charles Darwin.

EVOLUTION WARSThe battle of Science (Evolution) vs. Religion (Creationism) is heating up faster than a cup of water on a bonfire. It is really hard for me to remain unbiased in this debate.
