Loud music of 2pac & Biggie was the beat.
The hustle of money you showed and taught me,
why life was so important.
The world was just round,
and nothing could stop my shine.
You made me feel better when you smiled,
Made me think back to my childhood days.
Florida trips with nothing to stress about,
And remind myself that everything will be okay.
You are my best friend and that is okay,
and I knew that no man could ever take your place.
Not even if I got married today.
I wanted you to know that you being my father isn’t the best thing God has given me.
It’s everything that you have taught me too.
To smile when things aren’t right.
To love when it’s not desired.
Be passionate in everything I do.
Looks of presentable and forward to a future!

Spectating
I can't imagine dying like this, in a place like this; on a cold, dirty pavement with rush hour traffic screaming by and a crowd looking on while paramedics struggle to find space to move. Who could? Deep down we all think there should be a reason, a moment of clarity... or a family presence, at least. For this man, this boy, the rail thin woman lighting a cigarette in a faux fur jacket will have to do - she's been here since the start, her eyes tracking the movement of my shoulders as we fight to keep him on the right side of the line.
