eve. even. uneven.

today is the day again, duders-
it's christmas flippin' eve,
or more like XI-mas eve's eve, actually.
kids, believe me when i tell you-
connecticut is bad for your health.
true story.
and that's where i'm smack dab at the bottom middle of.
uh-huh.
i've got sick kids simmering with furious feverish hot fire.
awwwwww, man.
it's true, in fact,
we've ALL got a fresh hot batch of chronic connecticitis,
with syrupy snot-noses redder than rudolph,
and coughing fits that could stuff a stocking full of sour
sore throated weak sauce.
barking and biting and braying like a betrayed barbarian
of futile feudal systemic immunity and worrisome white
blood cells surrounded by some very black thoughts.
and a whole bunch of black people, too.
haha.
multicultural influences abound in this international hub of humanity-
y'all may not know about those,
especially if you're repping those rural jauns up in the white mountains.
on the really real,
for all it's heroic charm and idyllic dopeness,
the woodsly goodness is in short supply of urban expertism.
but down here?
oh man!
we're waist deep in the doo-doo buttery sprawl of congested roads
and crowded houses and so many different types of hard styles
and brutal truths and ghetto philosophers.
we keep it molto real with that 'hood sh!t.
that's no jokes.
i'm sayin', neighbors,
we've got it poppin' off.
home cookin' and homies from all over converging on a predetermined destination to share in their fair portion of disproportionately shared experiences.
which is comprised almost completely of ibuprofen and juice
and taking it easy as time spans across the ghost circles
of family togetherness.
ummmm.....yeah.
*
anyway,
the trees are trimmed,
the bags are packed,
the stockings stuffed,
and the mousetraps are set,
so should a minky little mouse start stirring, well, you know....
today is the day again,
and tonight's the night.
a holy(sh!tty) silent night, my ninjas,
but for all the tranquility of the nativity scenery?
yuuuuuuup.
it's still gonna be;
never quiet, never soft.....
