Mack and Scott Go to Scool – On Penrose St. 🌹

Written By Scott L.

💠 💠 💠

Mack’s got on his New Balance,

It's Got Magic

Smellin’ like cinnamon…

Red-rimmed glasses—

A real Romeo in disguise.

Meek, humble,

Yet the young ladies of the Kingdom

Sway… and perk…

Hugging… and perking up…

Forget-me-nots 💠

Beneath the sweet sky,

Across the green meadow’s gentle ground—

Swept away by Romeo,

For the sake of being swept away,

Above its own delight…

Their motion pausing,

Suspended in the quiet spell

Of his charm…

In the moonlight.

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
