The Echo
10/2020

The echo of silence in my mind is deafening,
Surrounded by the inadequacies of others, that they try to place on you,
The shrinking of your life, for their gain,
Their solace,

Music Mondays – “Don’t Kill Dub (Poem by Sonia Sanchez)

This is likely the most Blue Lines related post in quite some time. The epitome of my 1999, and my first road trip. Prior to that, the furthest I may have gone was…Atlanta (further west than anything in GA).
A trip to research for my manuscript, that was my first time out West. There was enough money for food and gas, a selection of CD’s and Cassettes, and no responsibilities in life. I saw the mastering of the “Around the World” video, found out how wrong I was about some manuscript aspects, and didn’t want to leave. That said, “Scar Tissue.”
