After three tries, I got my son on the phone and immediately asked, “Are you okay?”
“Yes dad. I’m not hurt. I just don’t understand. How come you can’t be my dad?” He then rambled on about everything he did wrong and what everyone was saying.
“Stop, stop. I am forever your dad. No ifs, ands, or [...]
Our Eden
All I could do is think
about how she touched me
I need another moment,
I understand,
she’s busy, I’m about to be busy,
but I’m missing her.
I can’t wait for her touch
It’s been days,
and I’m having one of those days,
I wanna know about her day,
as she jacket comes off.
Even though she wearing
the dress I like,
the perfume I crave,
I just [...]
I Screwed Up–Final Story
After hours of driving, and talking to a doctor about my ribs, which there was nothing he could do, I arrived at my home in Sacramento. Bev, looking like a fine ass Toni Braxton, ran out the house, screaming, as I approached the door.
“Leo, something’s wrong with your son. He’s beating Sam with [...]
I Screwed Up–Story 9
I floored it as she tried to unlock the door. Kicking her face with my right foot, I was losing control of the van, dodging on coming traffic. Cussing at me, she grabbed my right foot and tried to pull me out the passenger’s window. Now, looking like I’m playing Twister, my [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 6
Someone said, “Real men don’t cry.” Did that man ever have to walk six and a half miles to a gas station with broken ribs? No, I don’t think so! But we finally made it to the gas station. Redhead held my hand inside the store, because she’s didn’t want me to run away. [...]

Nicholas Jeff—Really Babe, Really?
Another reason I can’t stand this job is that it’s consumes my time and pretty much limits my personal time. Yeah, I know what your thinking, “it’s a bad economy, be glad you got a job.” You know who tells that? All my friends who have $50,000/year jobs with sick leave, vacation pay, [...]

Nicholas Jeff–Dammit, Not Today, Part 2
Over the next few hours, I was knocked out cold. I’m surprised the police didn’t come over. But then again, the neighbors really don’t get into other people affairs. This was probably the most anti-social neighborhood I ever lived in. Luckily, my beautiful girlfriend, Chante, woke me up. Good thing [...]

She Passed
She passed today.
Guess it’s my fault—
I shouldn’t have let her
love that man.
He was an alcoholic.
She was an active Christian
He didn’t work.
She worked at the
boys and girls club
and paid for everything.
He had a high school diploma.
She was a Ph. D candidate.
I tried to tell her,
but she was addicted to his touch
his caresses, his words.
He was [...]

Nicholas Jeff–Dammit, Not Today!
Long time everyone, but it’s me Nicholas Jeff and I’m back!
I don’t know about you, but when I’m tired, I’m drained and anti-social. The only person I’d wanna see is my woman. But if she ain’t there, I don’t wanna see anyone, no one. Maybe some family members, but even that’s a [...]

Thank God the police showed up. Two officers stepped out the car, a black man and a white man, wearing pressed dark uniforms and clean cut. I hoped that all I had to do was tell them the truth, which was hard to believe, and I’d be going home! Well, [...]

New to the story? Please start here from Story 1
It’s about 20 miles later, and that damn Redhead was still talking. She talked about some of the nastiest men slept with. I remembered I was trying to ignore this story about her sleeping with a homeless man with no teeth. But she slept [...]
Best of Pyerse Dandridge
Comfort Me
Someone comfort me.
I’ve been in my room
for three days. No shower,
body odor’s getting ripe,
and I stare that this 9mm
as if it was the answer.
Meanwhile, the peanut gallery’s opinions
play in my head like a broken record,
as my low self-esteem
turns them into gospel.
Chills of guilt rushes my body as
responsibilities and commitments
escalate into
failures and disappointments.
And I’m just a [...]
