awwwwwww, man!
Tea aNd Toast, duders,
...for one.
yuuuup.
i'm on that home alone sh!t.
the entire expanse of the woodsly goodness's
very own bastion of barbarian battle
and worth-a-sh!t warrior poetry,
or as y'all know and love it-
the Folk Life & Liberty Fortress,
is all mine all mine all mine,
for at least the next forty eight expert hours.
uh-huh.
i've got the place to my own only lonely lonesome,
and i'll tell you something, neighbors-
i like it.
it's a baskerville kind of day out there,
wet, muggy, foggy, busted,
and completely expected.
huh?
i've got a few days off, kids...
so of course the weather is gonna suck all the balls
that ever existed in the whole world.
may showers is how we get wet around here.
june flowers are then optional.
it's like every day is a parade day,
and it's getting postponed due to stormy skies.
it's cool, though,
we'll line those clouds with silver tears.
ugh.
maybe should i start singing?
y'know, in the rain?
c'mon.
i'm just waiting for lightning striking viking electrification
to bolt into my body every time i take the dog out.
i'm a well-rounded, grounded super-conductor, after all.
^oh, you like it.
***********
affecting change, y'all.
effecting effective change?
i dunno.
but something is changing.
i guess that when it's time to activate,
it's time to activate.
and that clearly means being active.
obviously.
there are saturation points in interpersonal dynamics.
the operative word there being dynamic.
you need conflict to create resolution.
you need fuel and a catalyst to create energy.
saturation provides a big boost of doo-doo butter to ignite
and incite the powerful pushes, pulls, and purges
that propel us to just be dope.
interpersonal stasis, however,
does not process that fuel for
competent communication and introspective integrity
in a manner that makes the magic happen...
inactivation, would be what we call that, i guess.
and that, kids, is how the critical mass gets created.
y'know what i mean?
oversaturation leads to some filthy spills.
and a very messy cleanup.
that's a thing.
within reason, prevention is worth tons of cure.
however,
once we've reached the limits of being reasonable,
then it's the part of the program
where we get real.
making choices and making moves,
moving forward and changing course.
cause and effect,
action and reaction,
truth and consequence,
hard styles and hard pounding.
some things happen more than others,
but all of it always is;
never quiet, never soft.....7x12
