After a Night at the Hole in the Wall


Have you ever been to that place where the drinks are cheap and the party is jumping? Or have you been to the place where there is only one bathroom for men and women and the line is usually longer than the line at the bar? Well I've found that place right here in downtown Macon. Its became an every Friday night hot spot. We arrive, there's usually only one or two seats left. The waitresses bring you a few cups of your favorite troubling beverage for tips and there's ALWAYS a live band. The band serenades you with that good old school. Denise LaSalle, Clarence Carter, Johnny Taylor, Earth-Wind-And-Fire, are not uncommon in this place.

The live band makes it that much more spectacular. Not to mention uncle Remus and his polyester gold suits and the matching hat. Aunt Debra and her new husband and her bottomless cup of Long Island ICE teas! If you missed that, maybe you'll see the other black souls full of anticipation seeking something more than what they've received for the last 5 days. Whatever you see, just know that you're getting uninhibited, unsensored, hard, loving fun.

If you get on the Midnight Train to Georgia, be sure to stop by the Midtown Key Club in little ole Macon, Georgia where the band is live and the drinks will set you right. - Zo Ross, signing off

That's it! I Quit! I'm Moving on!

Sam Cook recorded this old blues track in 1961. We were in a different time back then, but the realities of the lyrics are relevant even today. They were relevant in my life anyway. We connect to our artists by our emotions and experiences. Adele did a cover of the song on her album, 19. Her British accent and obvious sassy attitude gave the song flair and life. This song ministered to me because it gave direct insight on a situation that I was experiencing. I was in LOVE, by myself. There was an agreement to just, "be friends". In the song, there's a line that said, "if I can't have you the way I want you, I don't want you at all." So there it is. Throughout the relationship that I was in, there was a strong time strain. No time for me. No time for us. I can remember a conversation, "...you're not a priority. You're simply on a to-do list." One would think that even sane man would have left then, right? Not my stupid ass. SMH. Th...

A bottle of emotion

I refuse to write yet another love story and be labeled as a writer with lovely thoughts about happiness a bliss. I would prefer to be that brother that writes of truth, the other side, the side less read or shall I say TALKED about because it is less desirable material. No fuck that. I can tell I lost a few of you with that last sentence - so let's try it again. I would prefer to keep it real with the ugly than MAC make-up the FACE you want to see. Or better yet, paint a picture of the most beautiful relic on God's green earth. I'm real whether directly or indirectly. Intelligence is earned, it is free and costs you nothing to obtain. GET SOME! If you read hard enough you'll feel my pain and my intentions and my story. My intentions are not to confuse you, yet USE you to think harder than you thought the day before. I'll be your therapist, come on in. It's here - all right here, you just have to open your mind and receive it. The funny thing about words is t...
