I demand.

Sitting all day pondering
Longing, mind wandering
Mostly wondering
About you
Let’s be clear.
My intents are surely selfish.
But my life is MY life.
Yours is yours. We need a middle ground
Cuz I’m crossing that line. I mean, it’s already crossed
But I want to go much further, beyond this place.
I’m only asking for the tiniest sliver of you
For now.
Maybe I end up with a slice. Or fuck it, the whole thing
But right now?
I want a piece of you. Give it to me.
I have an insatiable love & lust for you.
I need a fix.
My mind is running away and I’m inclined to let it
But will you let me?
You will.
But when?
Now, I demand.
Now.

Nolan The Ninja – Plight [video]


My mans Ketchum set this thru. I don’t know how I feel about it. He’s not wack. But it’s definitely in the “lyrical miracle” sector of rap. And that rough scratchy voice just not for me. Maybe if it was back in the day when BCC first popped off. You gotta wear dirty timbs and bubble vests to appreciate this fully.

Sam vs Otis



2 very different renditions of the same song. I see the direction Otis was going here. But I just don’t think he fully realized the potential in doing the song his own way. Then the duet? No thank you. Sam sings the hell this baby. It’s on the short list for my favsies by Mr Cooke. Get your mans Devs! He’s 0-3 in this piece.

“….
I know I laughed when you left
But now I know I only hurt myself
….
You know I’ll always be your slave
‘Til I’m buried, buried in my grave”

*also, that’s Lou Rawls on Sam’s b/g vocals. How awesome is that?!?

**oh yeah. I also just got this on 45. Bitches!

Musing

Ever since that Hank Moody quote from Californication I stopped writing. I wanted a new muse. I felt it was gonna hurt me to keep you in my mind as inspiration. So I just stopped. I have nothing. All I’m doing is hurting myself. If I do happen upon a new source of inspiration, so be it. But for now (& forever, really) you are it. I’ll continue to harness what I can from you. Or what’s left of you, in my mind. NOTE: I truncated a large section of this piece. A lot of other things didn’t need to be said (on here). But I’ll leave you with a portion of what I decided not to scrap:

I know where my place is in your life. The past. And I’m gonna respect that. As I ruined the chance to be the present and future. So I will keep it all to myself. The thoughts. The funnies. The feels. The music. The Love. The lust. The shows. The EVERYTHING. It’s all gonna stay here.
