Love

to me
0 minutes agoDetails
I think about the curves
In your face
The way your cheeks
And chin
Meet
Every line
And bump
And wrinkle
Beautiful
To me
You
I
Enjoy
Watching
You
Sleep
Observing you
While you rest
Deep in sleep
Your
Beautiful
Eyes
Closed, to the world
I find myself
Deep in thought
While I
Watch
You are ever present
In my mind
Like the phantom pains
Of lost limbs
You are a constant
I can't shake you
From my mind
From my dreams
I think about the curves
While you are under me
The look on your face
When I move my hips
Into yours
I dance
With you
While we make love
You
Deep inside
Of
Me
And I
Welcome it
As I whisper
Your name and
Moan
You
You
are stuck
In my mind
Stuck
A constant
Ever present
Reminder
That I
Am
Falling
Deeply
In love
With
You.
Open letter to Access A Ride
Dear #AAR #AccessARide #NYCMTA,
You suck.
Let me explain.
You hire people, who could literally give zero craps about differently-abled folks, then charge them for this service. All the while, not doing anything about accessibility on trains and buses.
Access a Ride is supposed to make it easier for differently-abled and elderly folks to get around the city. Instead, the majority of your drivers are rude, unhelpful, nasty and/or refuse to take no for an answer with sexual advances.
How is this workable? Oh, right. The guys at the top, #VeroniqueHakim, #ThomasPrendergast, #DonnaEvans, who I'm assuming also run AAR, need to do a better job. Do you think I asked to lose my legs? To have to use a wheelchair right now? It's bad enough that a good portion of the city isn't accessible to me. You just add fuel to the fire by making your service, WHICH I PAY FOR, a complete and utter waste of time and money.
I've lived in NYC my entire life. Born and raised. It's bad enough I, a native NYer, have to already fight gentrification. Now I fight to simply getting the minimum from your drivers.
Your greed, lack of community and selfishness towards the people of NY, disgusts me. I'm not only sharing this for myself, but for the hundreds of people that I know personally who have continually struggled with this service. I'm putting this everywhere, with the hope to hold you all accountable.
You all have a great deal to learn about running a business and a service that best supports a community. Start by looking inward. Make some changes to yourself. It's not just about you. That's not how community works.
