It’s a Rap
I admit that as I’m nearing the launch date for my Summer VT journey, I’m getting a bit off task when it comes to writing posts. Fortunately, I have some friends and family helping out. Thought I’d share this – spilled out spontaneously by a 14yo who drums a lot. See if it hits you, too….
Remember our family poetry night? Well, we had rap night tonight. This is what showed up:
By Orange Drummer, Carrboro, NC:
I’m getting just a little bit too big for my cage.
Letting go of everything but my drums and my rage.
The unlivable living climate like a bullet in my brain.
All that’s unloved will remain the same.
I can’t do this, you knew this, everytime we all go through this like a new wish like my old risks like a reused to-do list.
Every time I’m still I’m not moving I justĀ feel dead. Don’t worry, I promise I won’t let it go to my head.
