You’re a flower.
Connecting to your past is your roots extending
Touching different parts of this lovely garden,
Perhaps your life is a forest.

Embracing areas unexplored, sometimes ignored
To learn of the pieces and droplets of sunlight left behind
Brought back to the present

It happens, at times, in an assembly of plants
Some from old gardens left behind
Struggling but striving. Enlightening.

As you bloom to the new moon,
Surrounded by petals plucked, fallen free
For purposes of growth and advancement,
Connect to your past.

Revisit the dews—turned yellow—on these petals
That used to fertilize you.
But now glistened with dirt.

You’re a flower.
And we need to bloom.
Sometimes involving leaving that soil behind
That we were once rooted to.

I like to
Extend my newfound vines to my old roots.
Feel the uncertainty that clouded the atmosphere
But the tranquility that came with it.
These old, grown branches—now withered
That used to lay at the foundation;
Stagnant.
The stakes in place to support my growth
I once thought
Were only burdened with staking my youth

I like to
Recline to that old sweet sun, back there
Embrace it tighter.
Realize its prime necessity to my evolution.

Hello everyone!

I have a wonderful surprise! I recently learned that Keiken was found and is led by a classmate of mine from high school (who I was no longer in touch with because I’m TERRIBLE at that stuff)! While looking through some of the photos on Keiken, I saw the picture above, and it stopped me dead in my tracks! “Wait…I KNOW HER!” I remembered that girl from when I was in high school! She was a senior when I was a freshman, so we were never close—we knew of each other’s existence because the school was so small! I reached out to her, and in talking more about Keiken, here’s what I learned:

Keiken Media is a digital creative agency with a rising streetwear fashion brand. The company identity is tied together by cross cultural integration of style expression from Japan, the origin of its name, the Caribbean and Black American communities in the United States.

Currently displaying several capsule collections, the Keiken catalog consists of brand staple pieces like the Classic Keiken Embroidered visor to protect you from the sun while keeping you looking cool. As well as the Classic Keiken Embroidered packable champion windbreaker that can be easily be used as storage for itself, making the item exude laid back confidence, youthful innovation, and functionality.

The company name Keiken translates from Japanese to “one’s own experience.” Like the brand’s nomenclature, the Land of Sunshine collection grew from the definition of the inspiring country’s name. Japan translates to “sunshine land” and the emblem for this capsule collection shows how Japanese culture is ingrained in the brand’s DNA and radiates throughout the design.

The Newest items are centered around one of the three pillars of Keiken. The Pillars are Health, Wealth, and Sustainable Living. For the wealth portion Keiken Media encourages education and engagement with cryptocurrency and the various lanes of the growing decentralized finance space. The collection includes T’s, sweat shirts, and fun accessories like socks and stickers.

Beauty Mark

The Scars on our faces are what relates us,
Though different races.

A hill rises somewhere on your shining
Valley attracting everything light.
Nothing has been right but

That’s a story the slug rarely tells,
Although you’ve climbed.
Claimed victory at the peak—
Of which, we don’t often speak

The Marks on our faces are crafted,
Never draft-ed.
The artist leaving it to be, as it be
A sign of Beauty:

Scars turned around, truly.

@Sircharlesthepoet


I love beauty marks. Beauty marks remind us that a “true artist” (or someone with the right mentality) can come across something that was meant to be a scar, an unappealing mark—a mole—and see it as beauty. It takes courage and a firm, but beautiful, mindset to be able to find yourself among complete chaos, yet still be able to see the beauty in it AND keep your head space and inner peace in tact. So is it a nasty mole or a beauty mark?

Send this to someone who saw beauty in something crappy. Stay safe out there, y’all.

Let us dance. To the rhythm of our breaths

Let’s smile like the stars need guidance,
Laugh like the sun is turned off

Let’s dance. Each step giving way to the better
Tomorrow

Let’s break the rules because
If they were good
They wouldn’t be breakable

Let’s be fools, and not fear judgement

Let’s drown in our imperfections
Accept them as perfections

Let’s live, breathe, run and stay in a joyful episode

A Living Art

The traces on the body are that of an architect
A walking amazement
Crowds cheer, though silently
Thus, the self proceeds, oblivious of such.

The outline of the body is that carved by nature
Fruits to the head
Sweetness for the belly
Feet move like trees breezing naturally.

Personality in the body is a sack, that of diamonds
Some seen as more prosperous than others,
Following it: an essence of pure heart
Yet, you don’t see that you are art.

Motivation

Everyone: yourself and the people you consider a friend, have an immense level of potential to do a lot of things. You have to realize that the best you give today can be the worst you give tomorrow; “May the best of your todays be the worst of your tomorrows.” – Jay-Z.

Each one of us is a flower: ready to bloom with every might as soon as spring comes by. So, quit telling yourself you cannot do something or something was not made for you, though you want it. You know that is a lie. You have to believe in yourself, believe you can achieve greatness and if your time to achieve greatness hasn’t come yet, prepare for when it arrives.

“What if I don’t want to wait?” Well, some plants also grow in other seasons. Try to achieve your greatness now. Patience is good but, if you know you can achieve something right now, what are you waiting for? Let now be your spring and let yourself grow and bloom into more beauty.

Tell that to a friend as a reminder or to someone who is losing faith in themself. Let them know that, they are at their worst but their time will come. So keep your head up and soldier on!

The journey is tough, I know, but an arrow has to be pulled backwards before it plunges forward.

Know someone who needs some motivation? Share this with them!

Cheers~

It seems like we’re on the line:
Don’t know where we’re going
But we’re smiling.

Maybe that is the problem?

Red and Green,
Lovely tunes, beautiful.
None like June,
Unique every year, like its flakes

Everything is in slow motion
Like thoughts under moonlights,
Mystery with inconsistent heights;
The shocking moments in movies.

Music competing with laughter,
Baby Jesus born to rise in the higher
And take us with Him too.

Snow eternally welcomed,
While legs are rapid through the cold

All is humbled, fascinating white gold
Beautiful, but not like June
We’ll be sure to see it again, sometime soon.
