SONG OF THE DAY: Sundown (45s on 33)


A goal I have for this calendar year we are in is to add more 45s ripped at 33 speed to the body of the internet, like maybe 12 a month, because ultimately we will all die and all that will be left is the ridiculous stupid shit we did online.

SONG OF THE DAY: What Condition My Condition Is In


Was gonna try to write something short, clever, whatever, but my shoulder is fucked up, and it’s cold, and it was just 4:30 but now it’s already like midnight but it’s only been about 20 minutes, and what the fuck man, I don’t like this time of year at all. Counting down the day ‘til solstice, and then I’m gonna worship those tiny little longer slivers of sunlight, until it gets too summer and I’m like, “Damn, it’s hot, ain’t it?” Lol, people.

back roads, while solar eyes still 
keep a watch over my path

the sun will rise tomorrow 
whether I do or not; gots

manmade creation’s been meant 
to rust back to brown Earth, so  
as to not stifle green’s growth

sunshine always promises 
spring-like hope though - those warm mind 
daydreams where it all works out

SONG OF THE DAY: Stare Directly Into The Sun



[a freestyle sonnet
Staring directly into the sun, 
establishing eye contact with solar flare, 
watching those who lust after gold dreams spun 
through manmade pyramid schemes pretend it's square 
to be crooked in alternative ways. 
Rays of sun in day plus moon's reflection 
at night, combined with maps the stars make blaze 
the path for me to follow; deception 
is the rule rather than exception here 
in this empire of greed where we all pretend 
want is need, while keeping our focus clear 
of seeing those who actually depend 
upon aid from others for survival; 
the wave of change needed remains tidal.

trapped in human form which
