Nothing to say,
Words hard to come by,
Little about me,
Not inspired by you,
Simply a nondescript day,
No sun to brighten the sky,
Lack of rain to drench,
Thinking you took it away,
It’s just time,
to think,
to reflect,
to heal,
to grow,
No muse, yes I’m uninspired now,
To manifest the phoenix within.
The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
