nina simone studies

Manu Chao and breakfast cereal: what else is there to live for?
but, seriously folks. enough talk--harmless, big-sweatered and cozy. we need more communes. turntables in every room. tv's in the yard watching themselves. big signs on the roof that say: NO MORE FUNERALS. little kids with long hair protesting gangsta rap, yet recognizing that some beats are worth going to war for. cigarette smoke drizzling upwards and noisy thoughts dangling. like learning economics. the amount of cells in the human brain. the life of Lew Alcindor. remembering the difference between "affect" and "effect". Herman Melville novels. West African Yoruban aesthetics. a Max Roach solo bbbbrrrrummmmbbbbbissscatacatcatcatbang! a Richard P. Feynman lecture and Wu-Tang Literary Studies courses. Nina Simone drawings.
we should really talk about this.
