well, shit. bunch of new followers today, and mostly fantastically interesting ones at that. if only all of you could be so fortunate. i feel sort of like this right now.
at noon he would sit on the ramp leading down to the harbor and watch the women walking up from the offices on the docks. in sandals and bright summer dresses, breasts bobbing, they left mersault’s tongue dry and his heart pounding with desire, a desire in which he recognized both a release and a justification. evenings, he would see the same women in the streets and follow them, the ardent animal coiled in his loins stirring with a fierce delight. for two days he smoldered in this inhuman exultation. on the third day he left genoa for algiers.

“he smoldered in this inhuman exultation.” fuck yeah camus.

Jay Electronica - Jazzmatazz (Feat. Tone Treasure)
though i obviously don’t know what my future will entail, for as long as my responsibilites (or lack thereof) permit me to smoke on a porch or patio on cloudy and/or rainy days, i see no reason why i won’t contentedly do so. it’s one of my favorite things, especially when music like this, jazz and beats, with or without lyrics, are involved.
this track was written as a tribute to guru, and references one of the rapper’s most well-known side projects. it’s a dj premier beat, sampling jazz guitarist wes montgomery’s tune ‘yesterday,’ also used as the intro on group home’s 1995 album livin’ proof.

Read your writing (ha sounds weird to say it like that) & this part caught my eye "There is no known way to freeze time, to fully appreciate a moment of stalled perspective, that we could cherish later if the past is (always) better than the state we find ourselves in. " I've always wanted to find a way to express a similar thought, so seeing it articulated in a way that actually makes some sense to me is pretty cool. Anyway, I really enjoyed that post, stream of consciousness is always full of thought gems.
:) muy bueno. that statement is part of the reason why creating art of any sort is so important, because it can create a permanent impression of otherwise infinitely ungraspable moments. and also, dmt is a hell of a chemical…..anything that helps grant unexpected access to the fathoming of universal truths gets my thumbs-up of approval.
i will try and remember the phrase ‘thought gems.’
really appreciate the responses, from all of you. in retrospect, i’m grateful i decided to prioritize prolonging all those sentiments, via pen and paper.
