Father to Son


it takes everything in me not to get all lame
and say something that would no doubt be seen as judgmental

i can only say, what a time it is
as a father myself, this snapshot spoke to me

truth is freedom


and that's not it over there.

Got To Be There!



pee wee herman is doing a live show for about a month in LA.
January 12, 2010 through February 7th.
it goes down at Club Nokia, located at 800 West Olyimpic Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA 90015 (as if you'd want to snail mail 'em tee hee!)

we're pickled tink over this.
looks like its' time to book a show in LaLa Land just to peep
what will no doubt be a resurrection of some long awaited
pee wee insanity!!

it's kinda trippy that Pee Wee's Playhouse went off the air in 1991.
dang- like on some contempo legendary isht, yo.

but to be truthful- my all time favorite movie scene is

life is beautiful.

Word Forests.


"three crew deep,
all aspect:
teamy"

catch the demo release of 'forests'
at the myspace page.

and for you lyric aficionados...

my lyrics go a little something like this-

welcome to live from the forest today’s presentation is underwritten by anonymous recordings
names not to be revealed kept out mouth of
you don’t have to get yourself in trouble for hate love
ravine steep, she slipped looked down
knew it was over HOLLERED OH SH$T but first thought

happiness is where you running to not from
realness sets in, when ain’t nobody come
mighty mighty construction blueprints lady up
town right around new toys brand new tints

some blue, some green cornucopia smokescreen fast mosaic darkroom prints
processed on her own fly eye keen
looks
analogous chop shop, all black speed crooks

snatchin over covers can’t hang wind stronger
usually breeze scarce scared waits longer
reveals brother’s secrets, sheds mistakes
sternum unzipped, heart drips lakes

swim crimson dredged owned slow more
found
objects not mine pine, no show for
weak, thoughtless, pull away, glued
gullible, infallible, misconstrued

thinking i’m another rhymer just like who?
phlecksi parmella just me boo.
when they made me they ain't make no mold
so they ain’t two
cold rockin’ it about to go right back
come here so:

you could walk word forests I know....
word forests I know, word forests
you could walk I know.... word forests
word forests I know... word forests

so back on the ravine or should we say off it,
where gravity has it’s way just about to sing,
including our photographer heroines free fall
all’s not quite lost such a sweet thing

ingenuity parachute happened to sting
screams
connected finger bones hard pull string poof!
north face mountain slows perspires
truth
be told ice not nearly as nice under

fire stoked anger never, ever ever touched, fine
I could tell it written all over her walk signs
just to get a little smidge and righten her mind
if she could only feel what I felt lookin behind

to dust come across lust letters under my ottoman
loves work I do but never knew that I though of him
what a trip could she meant me I’m not finished
I could really get into it if we had more minutes

lonliness landscapes sheets pristine
un
informed pens memories get reborn
meekest late bloomer deepest sneaker tretorn
navy blue canvases campuses true verse

write opaque sky backdrop reread
greatest
lover alive feedback true need
underneath purely practical v-neck tee’d
and
never met a mic that I just couldn’t commando

bird twig pomegranate black white logo
temperament akin aloof neglect perks
concrete cracker daytime public works
busy building opposition mergers jerks


contriving evidence cases closed wherein
manuscripts flammable matches pen cool like best well laid but hot like sin
cerity given sincerely, gleamy


3 crew deep all aspect, teamy
light bearer human being gardener dreamy
holographic cold audible see we
b dot w dot l dot p

dot could walk word forests I know....
word forests I know, word forests
you could walk I know.... word forests
word forests I know... word forests
