“ Fly you crows. My father was not a spectacle. He was the greatest man I ever knew. He was my everything. ”
What good's a black face if it means I'm just someone else's property? Why give me these arms and legs just to carry someone else's load, not my own?
~ Stacey Lee
Some parents bring their children up and, I suppose, others let them down.
I mean, sometimes I wonder why God would grant a favor if trouble's just waiting around the corner? It feels disingenuous. If it's fate, then it's written in the stars, and we can't do much to avoid it.
Somewhere between right and wrong lies a garden surrounded by thorns, and I have met you there.
