Chapter 327
Today i turned 33.
Happy birthday to me!
Though those challenges through those dark visions i seen in my dreams last night was an attack to my esteem.
Waking up to clouded skies and high winds this morning shifted my perception thinking “ maybe its the heavens blowing in the winds of change for me?
I decided to walk.
First I headed to the barber shop for a fresh cut, now Im feeling myself.
With my head phones on out the door. Taking a trip to the coffee house down the road for a hot cup of Black Seal .
A soiree of Happiness filled my heart , through the first sip with a bone chilling scent of sweet almond, reminiscent to the decadent amaretto with notes of decanter liqueur twirling in the mix .
Big smiles from the coffee house barista with a full house of beings bantering amongst themselves, listening to the constant bells of the door opening and closing to those coming and going in.
Finishing my cup i swift my way out the door, “Its time to go to the art store.”
I purchased some spray paint for my project so eager to rush home and pour my heart onto the canvas before its time to go pick up my daughter. For a number of days leading up til today, Ive reflected on how far Ive came.
“I always viewed my life as a book filled with riddles, altered dimensions blended with moments of joy and memories of a journey convulsing with supernatural happenings as most would deem as some of the more stranger things”.
None the less, indeed it is a new chapter, my life has consisted of many chapters left with cliff hangers and some unsolved mysteries all that lead to this new book as i stand at the edge of the mountains ready to plummet into my next book of life leaving karmic ties of the past behind.
At this very moment i cant help but to smile, as the sun shines finally beaming in Gods love and light upon my face typing this letter about my excitement for the best things to come.
As it just dawned on me of how today itself is like a metaphor, “ Waking up to gloomy clouds and high winds. Like the swirl of a storm coming in, to cleanse but by days end, the sun will shine again”.
Typically i would over indulge in sweet cakes , red wine and a side of cajun wings and fries for my birthday but im on a slight fast for the weekend as i prepare for the gift to take a trip swaying in earths sacred medicine.
Im so excited for the venture, for i know it’ll open the roads out of my mind with hidden text in this next book like a sacred scripture etched in peruvian mountains, or hieroglyphs upon the cave walls like the Grand Canyon perhaps?
For there is a burning desire and deep love to further find myself as I thread on, with expanded wings into the unknown.
This chapter is just a binacular scope to getting closer to my dreams as i further on to slay the minifibers of fear nestling on the hairs of my skin.
“Its like beating the finally boss at the end of the game and the credits roll in”
327 is like a code to my inner matrix that im breaking similar to a complex rubix cube of suduko written in hebrew language.
And though to the outer world my inner being is in fact complex, i see it as a hidden passage way to a secret garden no man has had a hand in creating.
A chapter within a chapter… except i am the creator of my story that was already written.
“Speaking now from the thoughts of my Higher Self, the future self”
Doctor Strange disguised as the thinking woman, whose peering into the multiverse of self, reading the foot prints like a sand dune of sanskrit , eyes zoomed in like a magnifying glass.
Its interesting how vivid the imagination is within my mind but then again its sightings of truth that my memory has stored from millions of generations I have lived through out time.
“Im ready to get started and re-remember this chapter of 327, only this time, i am sure to live far beyond the age of 33 this lifetime.

The most mind alerting experience that changed my perception on life was my first time sitting with AYAHUASCA. It was a day ill never forget, alot of changes took place at the start of 2020 for me. First, was a blessed trip i manifested to go to sedona Arizona for a few days , 2 days after new years day in January. The year before on new years eve in 2018 , i prayed to God and my spirit family for a sense of relief and a way to become closer to The Great Spirit and self, after attempting suicide the morning of December 9th of 2018. I was then being monitored by relatives at the time for about a month or so after that notion.
The night of New Years while spending the night over my families house, i sat in the basement after midnight, still feeling shattered on the inside.
It was like as if it was still the day that i decided in those moments when i was so fed up and ready to leave this world, that the angel of darkness had wisped away the light of my soul to keep, due to the empty void in my heart as i cried out for grievance from the constant unfortunate events that had rapidly transpired the past few years from the various forms of abuse I endured. Unknowingly my life was going in a downward spiral of a noiseless pit full speed and I had no clue. “ I was too busy drinking and dancing my sorrows away once upon a time”.

While in Sedona i found a sense of peace for the moment, learning simple healing modalities to reset my vagus nerve, eft tapping etc. I cried through the Angel healing session, as well as on the guided hike with the practitioner that followed into the creek before the mountain peak view.
There in Sedona I felt home being in the red earth desert land. Viewing the Grand Canyon was a surreal moment by it self. Staring into the massive gapping drop of mountains that formed a bowl like ridge as if it was a wondrous abyss to freedom. Though silence flooded the cool air , In my mind I felt as if there were many faces of passed on loved ones shaping the jagged edges in the mountains. “These were my ancestors”, the spirits of the Southwest spoke to me but without words, the same whispers i heard that night sitting in my families basement that told me, this was the place I needed to come for refuge.
As of now i realized me and those distant mountains have had many pastlives together, as far back to a time where they actually had the ability to speak back ( somehow Merlin comes to mind as i am typing this). They called out to me the night i cried for a wish of deliverance, “Not knowing it was a motion for me to come home”. After my short lived experience though the most memorable at that time in my life, I of course wanted to peer deeper into the supernatural world and learn more of who i was , though its deemed taboo to this world, I was lead to a man in a serendipitous moment. Again i asked the universe to meet a Shaman somehow , then met one at a crystal shop weeks after, giving short sessions for cleansing at a limited time.
After we spoke and i shared some of the tumultous happenings, he felt inclined to discuss sacred medicine with me , thats when i was lead to an Ayahuasca retreat in the month of september in 2020 ( what a year for a spiritual awakening) .After hours passed, once the medicine settled in, underneath the open stared sky that night , laying before a huge bonfire i felt the drift taking hold. An intense 5 hour purge of consistent tears and sobbing weakened my body to finally surrender all of the hidden hurt and pain Ive held dormant since a child came bursting through in the trapped door, hidden in the folds of the cortex of my mind.
There was this one moment when something told me to lay my head down upon the grass as i was rubbing the ground shaking from the hurt; when i seen my mother appear in the grass as if a glass floor was beneath me , literally. She told me to touch her hand ,reaching upward toward me and said “I m right here with you, im here, im here”.
Seeing my mother made me so happy i grieved harder, for she had passed away the day before Mothers Day unexpectedly in 2019. That shocking moment too was another stabbing ache of pain that left a scar within my heart. Another out of this world moment from that experience with momma Aya was when i was walking up the deck stairs and everything was rippling, even the touching of door knobs with grid lines forming behind everything. It shed light that the world that we live in is indeed holographic and not real, though to our naked eyes it would seem as if what we see on a day to day basis was in fact truth, but i KNOW it to be different. Ever since, my life was never the same, but for great reason.
As of now Ive had other experiences that have made an important impact on my life , it most definitely gave a reason why The Great Spirit would not let me leave this earth so soon when i attempted too. Though a late bloomer – I found purpose, with reasons why were all here is much deeper.
“Its bigger than you and me”.
So now everyday i am doing my best to be the best version of myself as I continue to walk hold hands with God and the many creeds of celestial family that guide me.
“Thank you for listening”

They said I’d burn, but I found my fire,
Defying the limits of their uninspired mire.
Tales of a perfect life, a distant, elusive dream,
Yet here I stand, my reality upstream.

Solving my Rubik’s with time, each turn a surprise,
The colors align in ways they couldn’t visualize.
A mosaic of triumph, far beyond their design,
A life that’s unfolding, uniquely mine.

Now, a grad student, my ambitions taking flight,
In a happy relationship, my heart alight.
Only 21, and stepping into my first role,
The future’s a canvas for my eager soul.

Looking ahead, I see a path of my own making,
A journey of dreams, for the taking.
Years stretch before me, a vast, open sea,
Every wave whispers, “This is meant to be.”

So let them talk of flames, of battles lost and won,
I’m the architect of a life that’s only just begun.
Conquering dreams, with each dawn I rise,
For the future is mine, a boundless prize.

It took me a minute
a day to fully know what it is you were showing me
why it is you’ve been coming
where there was healing to be done
how to let it all go

So strange to see you, after all these years, I never expected you
bent over in that way, mooning me with your
huge, white, naked ass
head down, booty up
neck cranked, eyes fixed at me, wide salacious smile, teeth glowing
skin remarkably softer and younger
than possible

And those cheeks you spread, so cheekily
taunting me to look into the portal

I never understood why you hated me, viscerally and unendingly, it was shocking
you were the first
and as far as I know
the only one

So strange
because I’ve prided myself on not being hated
on being liked and loved by all
on conforming and contorting and accommodating
to ensure
that I was who I needed to be

As you well know
As I did for you too

Your hair and makeup, that day
your fury raged at the other infiltrator of your family unit
but I was accustomed to the seething darkness of your victimhood
that left spittle in the corners of your mouth, flushed skin, and beads of sweat
it didn’t frighten me

So I re-curled your hair
and re-did your makeup
so you could show up, with that callous, forced grin, haunting her polaroid memories
the day I won you over, but only for a moment

It never hurt that you hated me, though confusing as it was

I witnessed you suffering in feeding it, enforcing it, compelling it’s existence
you lost more than I, and it was never just me anyway

So when you began hanging around, making yourself known again,
mooning me in my sleep
I gave it to god in Kundalini, ego eradicator evoking quick resolution

Y-O-U
S-H-O-W-E-D
M-E
Y-O-U-R
A-S-S-H-O-L-E

I manically laughed
You’re An Asshole

Nothing more to know, to reflect on, to figure out about your hate towards me
what a relief to finally see you so clearly, showing me your truest truth

You’re an asshole

Because there was, as I already know, no reason for you to hate me
as viciously as you did
as ardently as you tried

I was never mad or hurt, and I know that made it worse for you
your hate was a gift you didn’t and couldn’t have given in any other way

For you gave me your son, all of him
in all his glorious codependency
and insecurity
and anxious attachment style
he chose me over you

Which was a blessing and
a curse
I had to choose him over me
but it wasn’t all that bad
as you well know
trustworthy devotion, and dedication, and steadfast companionship
we made a life of the love we had
as you watched from a distance

We made friends and community
and flipped houses into homes
and traveled the world
and dreamed, and schemed, and played
and laughed, and loved, and lived
as you couldn’t
and wouldn’t
and didn’t

And you
you gave me your husband
who regardless of your atrocious spite, adored and supported me, us,
in secret visits, in business contracts, in hushed phone calls
though I could never trust him, because he always stood by you
choosing you over his own children, his sister, his friends, his colleagues,
all that isolation you demanded

And you gave me your daughter, brilliant, beautiful, best friend
and her gorgeous family, those kids who I miss and love dearly

You gave me the family, that I didn’t have growing up
that had nice things, and big dreams

You gave me a safe place to heal
time to grow, and learn, expand my worldview

And I gave them a type of love you couldn’t
and they were hungry for it, they craved it
it was my pleasure to be so needed, so necessary, it was so natural
for I had trained my whole life to be who you weren’t

And I know you know, though you’ve been gone four years now
you don’t have to worry anymore, I won’t be touching your money
for I already received my inheritance
one that you couldn’t have foreseen giving so generously to me

And I know you know, that there’s one more gift
you cunningly presented last night
there is reflection to be had in that full moon of yours, that portal of a mirror

I
A-M
A-N
A-S-S-H-O-L-E
too

When your husband on that final day
hugged me with tears in his eyes and tenderness in his embrace
that made me feel as if he knew, before he knew,
that I knew,
I wasn’t coming home

When I left
I dropped all those fragile, beautiful, hearts you gifted me
brazenly,
euphorically,
erratically,
unceremoniously
shattering them to smithereens
as I freed my queer soul

It hurt that your son didn’t want to stay friends
but how could we
and I still don’t know how or if repair is possible with your daughter
or necessary
or that I even want it at this point

Because when I finally chose me, when I saw in the mirror of my soul, who I really was
I couldn’t not choose me
I had to go
it was the most known thing about me, I hadn’t known

So I give them all back to you, I offer them up on your ofrenda in gratitude
on this Dias de Los Muertos
I surrender them to you, they’re yours now not mine
as they never were mine to begin with
though I’m honored to have held them for some time

And I’m grateful that you came to me
to remind me
that we’re all H-U-M-A-N

In our own ways we intentionally, and unintentionally
hurt each other
hurt ourselves

Turns out my familiarity with your seething darkness, was a resonance with my own

Fragile beings, broken hearts, tender souls
contradictory love that requires fissures for expansion
and endless forgiveness for our messy human-ness
a tacky glue of feeble attempts at repairs
malleable enough to engorge again
demanding honeyed self acceptance that entices another go
until it breaks some more

So you’re right, thanks for helping me lighten the load
to remember that
to speak my truth
and embody my truest self
not everyone is going to like me
it’s time to drop the people pleasing

Thank you
for all your gifts
you have given me
for I know you loved me more than you wanted to admit
and
I
L-O-V-E
Y-O-U

Cause we’re all just a bunch of assholes

I meet Poe in Baltimore, conjure his ghost to walk with me through emergence on these the sacred cremation grounds of conjunction. Dear master of the great mystery, detective of misery, for I am at a loss, tell me friend, what is it I am hesitating to see?

Descending down the musky dim stairwell, hunched over, under the lowly late winter clouds, a ceiling over a magic carpet that smells of a century of toxic Sundays past, we trace the spongy fibers for a pattern.

I point where what once constituted a solid foundation set by calcination crumbled in remediation. He notes the breaking of the mold, a microbial invasion of total separation of past, and present, and future. I add the discernment of yours, and mine, and ours.

He gazes in amazement, slowly the probing shifts to the slate blue medallions of my soul. So thorough is my dissolution that he too cannot see anything, excepting the brilliant field of incarnation.

In confirmation, with mischievous smirk he lingers to lurk, the case is closed, but insists with raised brow offering an opening, how is it that I did it, wove such clarity and purity of heart and mind? I shift and make room, pull up the fringed edges, and off we go, I will show him the world.

It began in a land, of a caveman dug up and quelled by the flic of a bic amidst the rapturous demands for change that flew them east to the land of entrapment with the promise of a equine companion.

It began in a desert, wind blown sand and sun burnt land where total annihilation by trusted conquistadors sent me dehydrated and crawling to the river of lost souls to drink, and take my place up on the plateau.

It began in a forest, of pine and mortgage with a hidden heart I did my part and pushed the cart for seven long years along the Front Range plains, a loathsom, painful sojourn.

It began in a terrace, of hillside views that smelled of sewage as rotting entrails simmered and rapturous sores festered and swelled.

It began in a subtropical paradise, where land mines set off by tomb raiders initiated the liberation.

It began in a pandemic with masks synched tight, I dropped forty pounds of unclaimed baggage.

It began in a circle with a turbaned stock broker and initiation by a Jersey high priestess.

It began in a Creekside with a Gable House and strolls around the pond that told me I’ve already been here, I’ve already done this.

It began along the Underground Railroad when I followed the North Star to Maine.

It began in a gallied kitchen, in a cedar shala, on oxblood couches, in attic bedroom, on road trip sing-along, in hot spring waters.

It began on a Mountaintop Ashram with Santa Claus and a gift of 101 spotted dalmations for Valentine’s.

Until finally I learned to listen and landed here along the bay in the land of strong deeds, gentle words. Guided by book peddlers in Kansas City foretelling of business down east, further than my Portland plans, where the lobster turn to crab. I was directed to find a soulful white stead a local will hold the key.

I listened and spent Sunday with the Divine in spacious white light of muddy cacao, guided by Komainu friends and a message from goddess, for a victorious celebration of chiefs over miners.

I listened and took a gamble on the energy of money, initiating a new way of being. Witnessing the absurdity at what I choose to build, at what grandeur I demand, at the surprising contrasting nature that abounds.

I listened to Hello Kitty who tells me anything is possible when you have the audacity to ask for it and gives me a sleeve of colorful confirmation for haiku contemplation before I take leave.

I listened and went around the writers block to find nothing much to write home about, and rounded the corner to the pony express and successfully negotiated transportation of the guru to Chicago.

I listened four hours of four running to the promise land where blue skies of heaven sit gloriously on red rocks of earth. And grandmother reminds us children that it is our laughter that initiates our full incarnation in this tribal nation of conscious fleshy bodies, announcing our arrival from the otherworld- ha!

I listen in the round where I craft my next move, our laughter is muffled by the weight of priests and suppressed pride. And I can no longer stand the irritation of my womb wound, it must be known and said so loud and with conviction that the witch doctor is called to anoint and realign.

I listen to delays that abound as I’m weathered to the ground when the electric bird I am meant to board redirects me through motor city and so I arrive at a different port town in the dark bitter cold to continue the trek north. Where Rudolph and I lock eyes for a brief moment before going our separate ways.

I listen to the bang of the northern lights – a release of the final hold, a welcomed clearing revealing bright stars, glimmers of a vibrant future. I’m like a shooting star, I’ve come so far, I can’t go back to where I used to be.

I listen to my weary soul when Santa surprises me as I rise from the rocks at Bass Harbor. He points to tell me destiny lays just eight hours away across international waters. And Mrs. Clause joins us and conjures the fractals of the Atlantic and washes my worries away as the christmas bell tolls.

I listen to the whispers in the valley where hungry ghosts roam the corner lot and suddenly I am possessed by her distraught energy that he carries haphazardly no apology in sight. So I put on the chains and play the game and tell him hello. And receive in epileptic episodes a pregnancy announcement before a military occupation is attempted.

I listen to the townspeople deeming an exorcism necessary and I head eight miles in the snow both ways to Crommett’s where I get high on thick air and drop the despair in playful cartwheels on the edge of the Appalachian trail before heading back into town to roll with the fatties on the final walk through, a parting of ways with these nosey neighbors.

I listen in the silence of the lobster trap, retreating, and sit on the eastern prom looking north again for that fated star. Deja Vu of a dream time past, with people once known, who no longer feel like home. I know where I’m going but I must head west to head east to head west to head east. A most auspicious combination lock to my heart and destiny well kept.

I listen in consultation with American Big Foot, Canadian Grandfather Time, Italian St. Peter and his sidekick New Mexico Brie who all assure me this is the path, the indirect way, to make one’s own, and make it known, you too exist, you too have something to say, you’re well on your way, keep going.

I listen to changing heartbeat thumping notes and hesitantly drop into pequeña república dominicana and circle twice the radio tower before I meet the anarchist who tells me the future is in the morals of the children, and we easily agree on personal sovereignty. And Hope lingers faintly in the background, a most appropriate veiled appearance for a true cosmic mystic.

I listen that night as my face is drawn by a friend and delivered the next morning, and as if for the first time the beauty is revealed and I revel at the possibility, has it always been this way? And the raven haired witch confirms as we sip and nibble on afternoon tea before I head off to e in court with Queen Anne to charm and do what I do best and move on.

I listen to the rain wash my lungs of smoke-filled nights and remove my shoes and socks in delight as I traverse the tiles, the cobble, the dirt, and puddles alike to pray under the protection of Ganeshe’s umbrella so he may clear the path of new beginnings. And with the Aussies make offerings of sweet mothers milk to heal the bag lady and makeway for Japan where we will track the beats and join Beyoncé on the foray into country.

I listen at dawn and blow a kiss to Washington at the little red lighthouse and trade Blue Pearl for Black Pearl as I string my way south 200 miles on the Appalachian trail to Georgia where I’m caught off guard by Virginia waiting at the plot. And drop the smoking hitchhiker, with the pension for men late at night, down the manhole. And Carya calls from Texas and tells me to remove my shoes and asks me to sit while she tells me more about how the ancestors regard me.

Which sends me on my back, struck by grief and relief, and waves of possibility in reverence for this temporary life. From which I gingerly rise like the hills and roll back 40 miles to that hundred year row home of suffocated dreams, 1924 North Milton St, to pick you up.

I listen as I walk the Chesapeake to commune with the Visionaries and see the future from Telluride, an intergalactic assurance of prosperity, there is no turning back now.

I listen to ensure I’m cleared for takeoff into the vast expanse of sovereignty in solidarity but I drop into St. Lukes for a quick confession with the young priest, where he invites me for sacred ceremony to evoke the goddess in the circle of light to evoke the darkness.

I listen to crystalline bowls as I throttle into the great whiteness with pins in my ears and waves in my belly and rice on my eyes and beans to rest my head as rain and whales and birds and fairies carry me in delusional delight reigniting laughter.

I listen as Virginia writes, I’ve asked her for her blessing, to which she obliges, and slides me a note from Milarepa who assures me murderers get into heaven too. And for the second time I see that brilliant beauty again.

So tell me friend, now that I’ve taken you wonder by wonder, over, sideways and under, what is it you and your raven eye see?

I must conclude – Poe says as he eyes the legs of his aged drink and sinks into his well worn seat at his favorite bar – that’s quite a majestic horse you came in on. You no doubt my dear will go very far, for there is no limitation in the equation when you’ve packed your imagination. Protect that sacred intuition and trust only those most worthy, but have no fear my dear for you know as I know all that lives in the dark, boldly explore the unseen and allow that truthful light, the shadows are no shadows at all when you reclaim your birthright.

In the intricate fabric of life, both dark and bright threads intertwine,
Weaving a story of joy and sorrow, uniquely mine.
No single moment shines so bright,
But every hue blends just right.

From peaks of joy, where hearts soar free,
To valleys deep, where eyes barely see,
Each step, each stumble, and each stride,
Together, they guide me inside.

The laughter that echoes after tears,
The courage that grows from facing fears,
In every up and down, I find my way,
In darkest days and in the lightest fray.

Lessons learned from love that’s lost,
Strength gained, no matter the cost,
Wisdom from making amends,
An open heart when the journey bends.

It’s not just one moment, but the collective thread
That weaves the path I tread,
Both storms that raged and calm that followed,
Dreams that soared and sorrows swallowed.

I stand grateful for every scar,
Every healed wound, every star,
For what has shaped me is life’s complex weave,
A journey rich, in which I believe.

In gratitude, I embrace both joy and pain,
Recognizing each moment’s unique gain,
A step in life’s perpetual ballet,
Changing me for the better, in its own way.
