Celebrate Your Voice: The World Needs Your Poetry 🌎✍️
Dear Poets,

Your words are powerful. They echo through time, telling stories that shape our world and define our history. Each poem you write is a gift to the world—a unique narrative that only you can tell. Remember, there's a message in the ink splattered on those blank canvases we call paper, and your voice is the beacon of hope that so many are waiting to hear.

Follow your dreams, trust your artistic approach, and share your stories. Someone out there needs your words today. Let’s celebrate the beauty and strength of poetry and encourage every poet to keep writing, keep dreaming, and keep inspiring. 🌟

Be bold. Be fearless. Be a poet.

Dear Charlotte artists and creatives (including DJs).... Why do we not have an ARTIST UNION??
Don't be quiet now, you don't have to like someone of their art to create what we need to be considered in this community.....

Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed audience, and those who accidentally stumbled upon this post while scrolling:

To whom it may concern, I am not interested in exposure. I repeat, I have no desire to become the next household name or achieve fame through free publicity on your flyers.

Therefore, please be advised:

Exposure is not a currency – unless you can pay my rent with FB or Instagram likes.

My face isn't free real estate – it does not come with a "buy one, get one free" deal.

An invoice will follow – consider it a friendly reminder that creativity and talent deserve recognition and compensation.

Thank you for your understanding and have a fabulous day!

I just want to shout out those who are challenged with PTSD and DEPRESSION.
Know that you are not alone and those who judge you are just not able to understand what they cannot see...
Yes I am still learning so in the process I just need to share in case it helps.......
Even if they don't get it, just know that you are not alone...........

SAY NO TO POLICE IMMUNITY!!!!!!!!

12/10/2024

To VOTE for a man who wants to allow police to handle you and your people in any form or fashion AND grant them immunity regardless of the outcome is a disrespect to your community.
YOU ARE A FREAKING PROBLEM
