sagacious

"of keen and farsighted penetration and judgement: discerning"

did you know that with the merriamwebster ap for the iPhone, you can just talk into the phone and it will recognize your word and bring you the definition?  do you have any fucking idea how incredibly fucking fantastic this is?  this is going to mean i can actually read books and understand what they mean.  i'm going to understand what the books mean, riffling off words verbally into my fucking iPhone ap, god damn.  like boom! boom! boom! "sagacious", gotchyou bitch, i know what you mean,  yeah bitches, "miasma!" "pallid!" "portentous!" "parabola!" i got you figured out, no more what the fuck does that mean.

i am one sagacious motherfucker.  discerning, farsightedly penetrating, penetrating that shit with my goldenrod mind, inside the cave of the dweller, thresholds crossed and transgressions forgiven, i'm the motherfucker with the opium, got you high off that natural disaster type shit

"my word play is jay z's object of study,
oops just scrabbled j into a fuddy-duddy 
tricks and treats i got in the bag
with a knife in the apple and Eve on my ass
i'll give you a phrase for a mil' and a gram
sit on your throne and eat your ham"

that's just some introductory shit.  you don't even want me to start getting serious.  i mean like taking it to some eminem educated shit, bout to use my masters degree on this shit, pouring lyrical greatness into your half empty, my half full cup.  i mean didn't we lose lyrical greatness back in the early 90's.  it's been a wasteland for the last 20 fucking years in hip hop.  gangster rap.  conscious rap.  well, i'm bout to change all that fo sho, nobody even says fo sho anymore, not even in walnut creek.

i gotta admit there are other sagacious motherfuckers out there.  i'd like to highlight just a couple.  harvey milk.  this motherfucker was one sagacious motherfucker.  he had some shit figured out a long time before your average joe in nebraska still elaborating his homophobic vaccuum of a mind.  dumb nebraskan motherfucker.  not to pick on nebraskans, that's just like homophobia.  jesus.  i'm so fallible. (had to use the merriamwebster ap for that one)  i try to say something right and get it wrong. i get it wrong.  i get it wrong.

"i get it wrong! i get it wrong!" - that's a good punk song chorus.  think dive club, spiky, mohawk dude with all kinds of tats and piercinings black torn jeans, "black flag" t shirt also torn, just ripping up a $100 strat, all fucked up and chipped and shit.  but he's wailing this shit bullet point stylee.  can't understand anything.

"i get it wrong! i get it wrong!
my mother's a fucking prong!
i get it wrong! i get it wrong!
my father takes it in the gong!"

DAMN.  did you not bear witness?  i just switched it up sagaciously, emphatically, hip hop to punk, limp bizkt style, cutting edge, 1993, mashing before mash up. potatoes.

okay, so i have to admit something.  i'm listening to the airborne toxic event.  i know.  but it's catchy.  i kindof like it. "wishing well" has this nice vibe to it.  it's cute.  that's so condescending it hurts.


And you think to yourself,
"This is it, this is it
This is all that I have
All I can stand
Is this air in my lungs
And this coin in my hand"


listen, i know, this posting is about hip hop and gay visionaries, so just continue to keep it real.  did you know that i'm a scholar of hip hop.  (or i was?/confusion)  i wrote my undergraduate thesis in 2002 on white suburban kids and hip hop.  it was that general.  i have no idea what i was trying to say.  i wrote 50 pages and it probably could have been a solid 5 pager.  damn i love you guys, gay, straight, bi-sexual, transgender, questioning, in transition, in scandanavia waiting in the operating room for the big switch, i love all you girls and guys and people for whom those words don't quite work.  i love you for your bravery.  it takes some balls to be a lesbian in this country.  so just know someone is appreciating that fact on a day to day level.

love to love,
Anthony

hip hop is not dead.

ps - just to be clear, i'm upset with homophobic nebraskans, absolutely not the entire human population of nebraska.
