Poetry-Not for Me
I’ve been on Vocal now for over a year and a half. During this time, I’ve noticed a growing trend towards poetry. Maybe I’m old and set in my ways, but that style of writing has never held my attention. Let’s face it, no one in the real world speaks that way.

Mustafa AliPublished 10 months ago in PoetsThe People You Allow In Your Life.
People enter your life for a reason. Sometimes you will know the reason right away and other times it may take time to figure out. When you have your first interaction with them, you'd might be able to determine what impact they will have on your life. You can just see it in very diferrent ways. For example, the way people are dressed. Clothing represents a personality trait, and it is up to you whether you will allow yourself to let this person have a impact on you. And it is a risk to allow new people in your life, no matter how decent or nice they look. Always remember, that appearances can be decieving. Bad things may happen at first, but in the end you will see that they were necessary in order to help you realize your potential and to prove them wrong. And let's be honest, nothing will fulfull the hunger of satisfaction except letting this spesific person realise what they have lost. You want them to regret that they ever treated you unfairly or used to for their advantages. But never the less, you do get those goodhearted people that turned into friends, that ended up as family... And you knew excatly the reason why you allowed them in your life. The reason is up to you. My short viewpoint from this, is that everything happens for a reason and without challenging yourself, life would be indistinguishable plain road, not knowing who you can trust and not. See it as a test. And without these experiences in your life, it would be a straight, flat road to nowhere. Would it be safe and comfortable? Of course. But it would also be dull and pointless.

I started shooting film back in 2019, or roughly around that time. I'd dabbled in film prior to 2019 but that was really the year that I fell in love with film and started to understand the magic behind the medium.

This program explores the production, sale, and use of drugs. It contains graphic content that may not be suitable for all viewers. Viewer discretion is advised. Welcome to Detroit, a city that is always buzzing with activity. There's a certain time of year when chaos takes over, and drug dealers in the Motor City are looking to make a fortune. Halloween in Detroit is like no other, especially in the rave scene where drug use is rampant. It's a gritty environment out here. Halloween generates more revenue than Christmas in just 48 frantic hours. The police are cracking down while the dealers are arming themselves. I always carry a gun because I'm not ready to give up what I'm doing, especially on Devil's Night, which is different from any other night in Detroit. It's like the devil himself visits the city.

Bowler Hat Man on the Stairs
A walk up the stairs. A curtain in the wall laid bare. Peel it back. What do you see? A man sitting there with a pipe, bowler hat, pants, rest bare.
