I Survived My 1st Ever 1-Man Show!!

I made it through my first ever 1-Man show titled "P.o.e.t.i.c. Sing Along Hip Hop Show" in one piece!! It was last Thursday, August 24th at the Woodcrest Library in South L.A.

Along with awesome help from my beautiful wife Rose, the show went off with a positive vibe and all of the children and their families (about 60-70 people in all) had the pleasure of experiencing some of my own "secret sauce" of spoken word poems from my book Poetic Pieces, "We Are Students that Care" chant, Hip Hop ABC's, Handsign Game, Music Mixa, Old Mac, etc.

It was a time of a lifetime and now that my after school program called YS-CARE is ending this week, it's now a new time in my life to diversify and become "The P.o.e.t.i.c. Educator" that is rightfully my new image in my career.

God is great and so are the great things that have happened in my life these past few weeks.....also, we're closing escrow on our home in Eagle Rock and a new life is approaching us very soon!!

Peace, Love, and Mabuhay,
