The Healing Place Poem + “Strawberry Swing (Frank Ocean Cover)” on SoundCloud
New braids, and a new mindset. Since the 2020 pandemic, we have all been going through a lot. COVID-19. Racial, and sexual prejudice. The ozone layer is getting thinner, and our planet continues to experience global warming, and ‘abnormal’ weather patterns. Some of us “myself included” are still learning to heal ourselves, while some of us are still learning that we are the only ones that can make peace with our own inner demons in this World. Life is short, and that’s what my new cover song ‘Strawberry Swing (Frank Ocean Cover)’ is all about.
I wrote this poem titled “The Healing Place” during the 2020 pandemic, about my healing Journey, and the hardships, and experience’s that have shaped my 20’s that have helped me to evolve mind, body, and spirit.
The Healing Place
Im on a Journey, your on a Journey, we’re all on a Journey. Just like a Phoenix that thrives, and soars form the flames that try to consume it I become one with the pain, and the struggle to fly, and when the pressures of life become to hot, and the heat disintegrates me into dust, I rise from the ashes born again. Still I rise despite all of the challenges life has presented me in this last decade. Surviving your 20’s is no joke. No job that has ever fired me, lover who has broken my heart, or friend that has turned into an enemy will ever again hold me back from advocating for myself. Any obstacle I face on my path in this new decade I will gracefully glide over like hurdles on a track. And although my feet are burning from the heat of the sands of my Journey I will continue to go down my own path and blaze a trial. Life is not a race, it’s a marathon.
My first single release from my upcoming mixtape ‘Strawberry Swing (Frank Ocean Cover)’ 🐫 his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra. That mixtape inspired me to be an artist, and has influenced my alternative R&B sound. The song is also an original Cold Play sample.
Since I’ve been away from Queology.net, I have realized how therapeutic writing is for me, and how effective my blog provides me a platform to be the author of my own story like a public memoir, or dairy. I know that I am capable of so much more than you have seen from me, and with the platform of my personal blog, I intend to do it. When I originally created this website, I did so with the intention that it other people aren’t going to give me my own platform to promote myself, my gifts, and talents, than I am not going to sit around and wait for anybody to invest in me, I will invest in my damn self. Blogging has not only become a hobby for me, but a form of self care, a therapy session with my higher self.
The ‘CarefreeBlackBoy’ official music video is on the way!
For the last 3 months I’ve been working diligently on the release of my first music video for my first single ‘CarefreeBlackBoy.’ There have been some major setbacks, and challenges along the way to putting it out but it will come out very soon, and I want to thank to thank my fans, and supporters for your patience. We never have a way of predicting when things don’t go as planned, it’s how we react to things that don’t go as planned that defines us the most. Check out some bending the scenes shots so far.
My singles CarefreeBlackBoy Four Wings , 1111 , DaysInTheMidwest and BlackWallStreet are available on itunes, spotify, amazonmusic and all streaming platforms! My second mixtape ‘On A Journey’ is coming soon! “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Follow me on my Journey. Come with me to the healing place.”
