if music gets u chocked up, than this is the tree and the rope...

Nothing in the cry of cicadas suggests they are about to die - Basho

In the past six, maybe seven months, I have seen and experienced many deaths. I have been in a patients room when they breathe their last death. This is it, the end of their life. I was there. People ask me about this situation, and I play it down. What am I suppose to say? Something so outlandishly moving that it brings them to tears? I guess the common consensus from a couple varied people is that I don't care, nor do I value the human life. These of course are friends, outsiders to the situation, not colleagues. One word, bothersome, another, untrue.


Saw the Nortious movie the other day.... It was pretty good. It was interesting to look back at all the east coast, west coast hype. I remember when it seemed that I exclusively listened to east coast rappers. Not the case anymore. It's all good, no matter where the coast, even Canada produces some hella beats. So tripe. Also, it got me to thinking how pretty much every artist out there has passion for their music and how industry comes in and ruins it. Thinking they all know what we want to hear. We just want to hear something real, from the heart.

A little somethin, somethin.... lately, the thoughts that have been consuming my mind is the future... not the crazy far away future. But, like the next couple of years future. I am applying to PA school, again. So I have been trying to make this happen. I hope I still feel passionately about everything when its all said and done. Guess I always have good ol' music to fall back on.. if music gets you chocked up, than this is the tree and the rope.........
