Dope Rhymes: Origin Story

This book was given to me and it’s so fine,

Yoga teacher training, week nine.

Darren, the founder, likes to give for free.

Offered to the class & I said ‘pick me’.

I saw ‘Dope Rhymes’ on the cover

& said yes please, pass it over.

For just yesterday I thought,

It’s time to give writing another shot.

And so here you are,

This book that will take me far.

With so many blank pages to fill with hope

Of rhymes and stories so badass & dope.
