About this listen

 Stories pulled from my childhood basement of memories. Occasionally, I step up into the attic of imagination to share. The fantastic adventures of a Black boy nick-named Precious growing up in Kansas. Often seen in the neighborhood, ducking behind bushes and hiding behind trees, searching for the “Cause” that made everyone else not see the real world before his eyes. Was he the only one able to fly and become invisible? Where did his power to rewind time and dodge rocks and snowballs come from? He knew that wherever he went, someone was watching. Someone invisible. The Basement People!Purefire Studio Art Entertainment & Performing Arts

    My sister dared me to fly. She knew I couldn't resist a dare.
