Pretty cool. Sounds like Morrison.

EWH,
Thanks So Much.
Kerouac Flavored Rap-The Piece is about The Deteororation of My Old Neighborhood in the City Before We Moved some 16 Years Ago.
I’m Planning on Giving Voice to this Piece sometime soon.
I’ll Start by Recording My Take on ‘Twilight’ and then Upload and Share the Sound File.
I’ve Not recorded any of My Work as Sound Files Yet, New Avenue of Opportunity.

Very good idea. Maybe you could combine it with pics and put it on video for youtube.
Expand each thought for impact? Just thinking out loud.

EWH,
Serious Food for Thought, Thanks!
Your Idea Would certainly Give The Piece More ‘Ooomph’.
Thanks So Much!

Wow, what a darker slice of life this is. You captured the whole ‘feel’ of the underbelly of the city quite well – or the maggot in the apple (in the case of New York). Some really good imagery in this one, LenG. The picture reminds me of Dante.

dragonkatet,
I Wrote This Piece with My Old Chicago Neighborhood in Mind.
Almost 20 Years Back, My Brother and I Bought a House in the Near West Suburbs, Just to Get Out and Past the Big City.
Our Neighborhood Had Turned from Solid Blue Collar Work Ethic to a Combo of Junkies, Gang-bangers, and Would-be hipsters.
The Picture Matched the Work Perfectly, Very Much Reminds Me of Dante as Well.
Very Much a Kerouac Flavored Piece, I Plan on Putting both Voice to the Work, and Perhaps Put Image(s) to a Video with a Reading Over as a Good Friend Suggested.
So Much Food for Thought!
Thanks and Best To You!
