Destiny's Stereo by R. Antonio Matta6/19/2023 Erosa and Topper run to the stage from their VIP seats in the audience tossing flowers at the band’s feet. The band receives a standing ovation before they can finish playing their last measure. The concert ends in euphoria-equilibrium of vibrations, voice and soul. The Maya touches heaven with its liveliness. Each time their melodies, beats and spoken word are infused with elements of jazz, hip-hop and funk. The band you would hear is a unique trio called, The Maya. If you were walking down the sidewalk where the lounge, The Astral Pit, is located-on any given Saturday night-you would hear acid jazz that’ll send your spirit to places unimagined in the universe. With delusions, hallucinations and paranoia of a schizophrenic and erratic mood shifts, as if swinging on the emotional pendulum of Bipolar, Sapieus Holmes fights to maintain healthy relationships with those closest to him - desperately trying to return to earlier states of sanity, spirituality and connection with reality. “Destiny’s Stereo” is a unique, literary blend of poetry and narrative writing telling the story of a man’s struggle with a debilitating, mental illness, Schizoaffective Disorder.
