Empty squares

inside a residence of scratchy

oil tiles

 

Wire live

gruffy check one two

majestic riddim oh

conquering lion

fire for us

 

A prickle of symphonic silences

spinal tattoos

rhythmic needles

upon vinyl

A blast of bass

Bass drum to

Scratch howl

Howl baboon howl

To th static strums of stalactile

recorded in cave

dubbed in the Wind

 

Record scratch

a lee crescente night of dub

to static to selassic eyes

O Poesia na Alma pertence ao universo da literatura livre, como um bicho solto, sem dono e nem freios. Escandalosamente poéticos, a literatura é o ar que enche nossos pulmões, cumprindo mais que uma função social e de empoderamento; fazendo rebuliço celular e sexo com a linguagem.
