The Floating World

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments

Written for a girl I was in love with, a long time ago.
FLOATING WORLD
The others are sleeping now,
Cold as comfort in their Eddie Bauer blankets
And the loft at the top of the honest Yankee cabin
Where Bowery mothers come to tan their ankles in mountain sun
And kiss the air that is not thick with bass rhythms [...]

Ice Age Coming

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments

More poetry. I thought this one was lost…I always liked this. I love Radiohead.
Ice Age Coming
Somewhere alongside the freeway
It is possible to hear birds outside your car window
Thick, soot-covered birds
Cackling in Ornette Coleman harmony
As they perch on plastic buildings
As they perch on the antennae
Of the rooftops that make up the
Rusted satellite cities where the
Beautiful people [...]

Rain Coast

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments

Did I mention I used to write poetry?
Rain Coast
Prelude.
See where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament
Bright curtains for a boy to slide down,
Great masts to support the world where it has grown a little antique.
I.
The father is out of his mind,
And has been thus since the cannons and the thunder,
Since Herod returned and set up [...]

Untitled Poem

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments

Found this in my Documents folder. I have no memory of writing this.
The sound of the horn and the drum
Keeps us all awake into the night.
They are praying to gods we do not understand.
But there is solace in the heat and the sand
And the breaking of bones that should have decayed
Long ago.
There is only the [...]

Because you said we didn’t rock: a thirty second snippet of the new version of “When You Get Here”.
(Notice the resemblance to Jesus & Mary Chain, MBV, Sigur Ros, et al.)

On A Side Note…

October 3rd, 2007 · No Comments

I got my free eMusic downloads, and you know what eMusic is fuckin’ awesome for? Old ass blues. I’m currently listening to, and enjoying the hell out of, Junior Wells (thanks for playing him in the car, Thom) and Skip James, who is my motherfucker.
And if I can ever get off of this here killin’ [...]

Talib Kweli - Ear Drum

October 3rd, 2007 · No Comments

In direct counterpoint to Kanye’s humdrum Graduation, Talib Kweli’s newest album, Ear Drum, is intelligent and way groovier. Better flow, better beats, better everything. Go buy it.

Kanye West - Graduation

October 2nd, 2007 · No Comments

Got this, listened to it. Aside from a couple of high points, it’s basically a snore-fest. Lazy lyrics, boring flow, and the best things about it are the people he brought in to help him.
Where does this guy’s rep as a major talent come from? Give me Mos Def, Talib Kweli and (Kanye’s fellow Chicagoan) [...]
