No Distance Between Days
2026
I woke up in the middle of the night, my body drenched in sweat.
There was the sense of a cleansing, a gentle purging, a resetting of the inner palate.
So I let it do what it came to do.
I drifted back to sleep, letting the night finish its work.
A Black boy from Omaha, Nebraska —
honoring the ancestors not through words,
but through this rarest of things: ease.
