letra de calculus johnson - rhys langston

Loading...

[rhys langston]
hypnotic trance, slam dance
igneous rock-
star pants
five-sided demands
pentagonal defense
d flat major
on a war path

the sample line
marching to zion
signed and rhyme
on tracks designed
a hero of one’s and zero’s
binds the keys
cuts strings
then sterile

colored playback
circle race music track
sour diesel oil change
puff puff p-ss
smog check p-ssed:
liner notes with ink black

3000 miles swap residue
hue so dark
tone walks the blues
opaque y chromosomes
find homes
mastering the mix of
city grooves:

bruised headstock
cop corner—stop—
beat is dropped
first measure cl1cks
spot the prison composition:
arrangement sans volition
sans volition
superst-tion plus addition
[the] conductor ran up his tab
swapping drinks with his buddy
addiction

gave up his keys
just the white ones
besides a flat tire sustained, rung
a stumble out the door
then drunken yelling
“johnny got his gun!”
intoxicated by sound
volume per drink
to the nearest round

calculus johnson eq’d the bill
and drove him home through town

[samples]
“we need money, red beans, benny rooster, pomani.”

“vivaldi, hendrix, debussy, sly stone, s-x pistols”

“we need money”

[rhys langston]
meanwhile
22 stops between homeless man and cop
lyrics in blues bar structure
black with a mic
one dropped, popped
hit the floor feedback pause
pick it up
and we’re back
no cut to commercial
bones of consumer, neck snap

wishbone milkbone milk toast
eviction of jazz
black residences
hip hop underground
rail road tracks
following north stardom
sold down rivers past khartoum
paparazzi kept out by a border along the sun

a nova scotian nubia and an ocean translation
new world cultural mirrors
appropriating the creations
