Grit. That’s what my social location has imprinted in my work. It’s how I do art and what I say with it. Grit is also about how I say things- like someone who is tired of the bullshit and doesn’t want to be another voice in the crowd. Because I am not, there are no crowds around here to hear this Compton poet. I write from the chill in my bones, from the hollow in my heart, from a –dollar- from- broke.
