The Thirty Second Draft Game (as in, I just wrote this in thirty seconds, approx. thirty seconds ago).

"Authenticity in Music"

When keeping it real goes wrong,
the high hats are marked with
an insoluble X, clouds wear the
pants around here, birds direct
the conversation, the oscilloscope
is raising the roof, something
in French is hurled across the room
and you'll be of it and with it,
loosed dime effects and penny
antes, swells and soft tempos
brought out from (I kid you not)
The Big Book of Negro Spirituals,
and the reason for so skeletal
a concept? Well, go back to the
website for a moment, the end
of lyricism, the ebb and the flow--
And, yeah, I feel ya. I really do.


Thanks to Dave Chapelle. Chapelle's Show rocks, and keeps people like me stoked with fresh phrases. I'm Rick James, bitch!
