The past few months for me have been a whirlwind of loss and forced growth. Loss of a relationship, loss of friends, loss of security… but a gain of a realization of strength. This “poem”, well actually an IM chat copied verbatim, is dedicated to that. Thanks for listening…

Brother, can you spare a dime or an ear?

**bows in the presence of greatness**
Your humble honesty is beautiful. Thanks for the real.
Thanks for being the ear for me to release it…. really need that!
You and I have a lot in common… 😉
I, too, have recently lost a lot of friends, lost a job… but I KNOW it’s all for a reason
Keep writing THROUGH it
Wishing you greatness!
