</a><br />What's up folks. . . this is the third installment of my rhyme of the week series, recorded live at The Depot Coffee House in Hopkins, MN (<a href="http://www.thedepotcoffeehouse.com">http://www.thedepotcoffeehouse.com</a>). I wrote this verse the day before yesterday just for you folks. Feel free to spread this about. I hope you enjoy it.<br />
<br />
"Dead. . . from the neck up or so it seems like<br />
and i've pushed the limits of that subject in my free writes<br />
The writer's block, the brain freeze, the never ending dream, fight<br />
between ambition and the mind, the penury of me, light bulb<br />
flickers, a slight flow enters, my spiteful center<br />
keeps writing so this might go quicker<br />
the inner anguish as fuel turns drools of withered spanglish<br />
to pools of spit to vanquish inhibitions in my basement<br />
Face it, touch it, confront it and get above it<br />
monologue of my soul when pushing pens to swallow nothings<br />
digested defenselessness in my connections<br />
of syllables to break the free expression through a sentence<br />
or two. . . now thats out the way, lets get these embers<br />
to grow to blazing fires of inspired in the winter<br />
weather roadblocks, keep driving whether or not the road stops<br />
float on wings of know-nots to make it bubble on the stove top<br />
feel the sizzle? pull back the drapes, reveal the window<br />
what waits reveals the meaning of the puzzle in the symbol<br />
and takes you on the journey through to manhood from a minnow<br />
and breaks the bigness and shows the universe inside a thimble<br />
oh my its simple, when put in that perspective<br />
the thoughts that tickle brains, hiking pens across neglected<br />
terrain, forgotten knowledge, estranged, yet popped like collicks<br />
or collars, unconscious struggles for its footing in the process<br />
noxious when taken in, I may contend and<br />
luck into the waves, face the break, taste the wind<br />
all these currents hit rocks, now caged, my brain is penned<br />
within these 28 bars, my current self is placed within"<br />

<br />
What's up folks. . . this is the second installment of my rhyme of the week recorded live hanging out in the folk section at Shuga Records (<a href="http://shugarecords.com">http://shugarecords.com</a>) in North East Minneapolis. I wrote this verse after reading an analysis of Finnegan's Wake so its kind of vague and abstract. I hope you dig it.<br />
<br />
<br />
"Through the hallowed haze of days swallowed I follow<br />
rays of sunlight laid on borrowed holidays; another's hollandaise<br />
rather than wallow in sorrow's maze, I gaze at Kahlo's Dali's<br />
brain's museo de feo 'cevedo's mild escape<br />
Lake's reflect opaque late decept-ion<br />
taste innate scraped from the plate defacing heaven<br />
Leavened lumps of languished saved in spanglish, jumped<br />
into the venom, lead in and swimming in Drunk As Drunk<br />
Past ghost hopes emoted wrote written broke<br />
fists gripping slipping submitting to given post before you<br />
Greater elegy left, lemmings yelling, telling me<br />
sketch me cleft chest piece on looseleaf left bereft<br />
accept her Seth to me, except for his acceptance speech<br />
in attempts by me to be all heart on some synechdoche<br />
I see whats left of keys floating in moats surrounding hopes<br />
discarded departing ropes swinging singing "No longer part of<br />
of no existence". . . to the tune of heartbeats<br />
banging drums as dreams awake in the distance" Sketch tha cataclysm - Rhyme Of The Week 1: 12/01/09tag:antfarmaffiliates.ning.com,2009-12-02:2108401:Video:239482009-12-02T05:46:09.738ZSketch Tha Cataclysm

"I write poems in empty crossword blocks that ride your minds treadmill and jog thoughts, I used to talk in circles but now that i've seen squares decided to push syllables against sides and work the angles, I dangle on high wires that have defined liars and perspire the breakbeats that I rhyme to, the sun dries lakes just for for to run its surface and in return I spill enough prose to fill its cavity, inhale negativity/exhale tragedy, perform sonnets and soliloquys dramatically, magically create casualties with gramtically incorrect phrases that stick without the static cling, I could score your life with a blank canvas, create a scene to turn your dreams into a sandwich, chill on swings that ring of Pete Sampras, in parks after dark or float on wings of salmon, that swim oceans to arrive where they've spawned, and realize all that they were is gone and that, life isn't long, appreciate the cost, and he who uses his time depreciates the loss, i've searched my pockets for a muse, opened my consciousness consumed by the moon, created a symphony of whistles, never found a tune, fell in love with the cacophony and rested in my tomb of which, I've painted prior with my blood and gassed the liner, so when I speak the lighter I could dwell inside my fire, liquify my physical, burn throughout my choir, detoxify my soul and let it rise up out the mire, let my beats speak volumes, let my words paint pictures, let my emotions be the catalyst that blows the roof off this sucker and destroys all the fixtures, I want to be the dance that satisfies your speakers and pleases the orishas of your fantasies knapsack, lookk outside its material, exercise an aerial, through outlandish prose and flows of abstracts"
