Freshmen year of college, I met this girl who I became pretty close with. One day, I went to her dorm to visit her (like I would do annoyingly too much). After knocking, she opened the door. There was a lady friend of hers calmly sitting on her bed. The three of us hung out, I was introduced to the friend, we cracked some jokes, and then I went about my day.
.
A few days later, I saw her in the school cafeteria, and so we ate together. While eating, she asked, “Charles, what do you think we were doing in the room when you knocked?” I looked at her, smiled, then responded, “you two were kissing.” Shocked, she blushed and exclaimed, “omg how’d you know that? Wow, you’re very perceptive, Charles!”
.
That was the first time I was called perceptive. Very often, in my normal interactions with people, I would naturally feel something about them/observe something from them. When I’d express it, they would react in surprise, saying that no one had ever noticed that about them or that they’ve been trying to find a way to express that part of themselves–thus I’ve given them the words to. As I develop into and embrace my personality, I find myself constantly seeing people in ways that not many others see them in. I find myself observing and feeling things about people that I think are SUPER obvious, but soon enough I find myself alone in these observations–with a subject filled with shock and amazement.
.
Something else that I want to do, and that I am already slowly doing, is put my descriptions, perceptions, and understandings of people into my writings. I want to write poems about people. I want to extract the poem out of the person. I want to turn the person into the poem. The more that my eyes open up to it, the more I am able to see the poetry that each human is. We’re all human, but I think my special blessing is to be able to see that we’re actually more than that. If I could open each person’s eyes to that fact, I would. I’d be content if I could spend the rest of my days trying to write people into poetry. Extract the work of art that is in them. ✨

Hey everyone!!!

Two days ago, I uploaded this post. But, today, I am finding out that the link that I had put in the post is not working!! I did not notice this until today because between work, family, personal needs and other things, I NEVER got a chance to pass by my blog since my last upload. So, it was to a great surprise, when I finally got back on today, to realize that a GREAT video about The Bowery, by NY1, (in which a poem of mine is featured) that I had posted is NOT working. Very quick shout out to mtaggartwriter for pointing this out to me because, if not, I would have NEVER noticed!!!

But finally, here is the old post along with a WORKING link, below! Thank you guys ssssoooo much for your infinite support!!

 

Bowery Poetry Club is one of the best things that have ever happened to me, especially as an artist. This video on The Bowery’s history is nothing short of amazing and captivating. Watch it. Additionally, I am beyond grateful that one of my poems/performances was so perfectly incorporated into it. If you would like to watch the video, click here. I won’t post the link below because I realized that when I do that, it doesn’t work. But when I embed the link into a word, as I did below and in the “click here” sentence prior, it works! Therefore, click on these words, guys!!!

Click here for the video!!!

Thank you all so much for your support!!!

Hello everybody,

A friend of mine is currently working on a story. She posted the story on wattpad (linked below) and would really appreciate it if people would read it, share it with others and comment their thoughts as she updates the story. Also, if you like it and would like to stay in the loop with the other parts of the story as she posts them, please follow her. Thank you very much!
