More Shout Outs

Gotta make a quick post thanking Dave Frisina for having me on Syracuse’s very own SOUNDCHECK on TK99 (Syracuse FM Radio 99.5) this past Sunday…

Nobody has done more for local musicians over tha years than Dave. He has full reign over his radio programming….and he obviously doesn’t mind stepping out of tha “classic rock” box from time to time.

Tha music he features every Sunday night from 9-10pm ranges from folk to funk, from rock to rap. He even did a live showcase with my peoples – Sophistafunk – live from Shify’s (on Burnett in tha ‘Cuse). Dave is tha man.  He’ll be gettin me a recording of our interview and my live recital of “Tha Birth of Lit-Hop.”  I’ll put it on tha multimedia page ASAP

peace

“Cinematic Poetry” by India Clark (aka Yaya)

I am Gone with the wind, someone please tell me Which Way is Up?
I have met this Ironman who has me Sprung, now I’m running around like I’m on some Funny Farm,

I understand that I am this Pretty Woman, with eyes the color of Brown Sugar
But the way he made my Love Jones come down, has me feeling like Lady Sings The Blues,

He knows I’ve enjoyed having Sex…in the city, with a few Goodfellas…you know, The Usual Suspects
And he should know that I do not enjoy playing The Crying Game,

I dated a Leo before -haha – I called him The Lion King, but he had a bad habit of
Secrets and Lies, soon there became Six Degrees of Separation between us,
I got tired of Waiting to Exhale and decided to Do the Right Thing,

I boarded an Airplane that moved through The Air up There quite swiftly; when it landed I found myself Sleepless in Seattle, in my dreams I was Romancing the Stone
In A Room with a View, I began to remove my clothes and found myself Dirty Dancing,

When the evening fell, I walked and saw a woman, she was Singing…In The Rain
I asked her name, she said “Roxanne.” She was Barefoot in The Park, she told me she doesn’t wear shoes, she likes to feel the earth move under her feet; told me a story of how she used to work Sunset Boulevard and how her hard life gave her a Braveheart

She reminded me to cherish every breath and how this is A Wonderful Life. She said “Love, is a Many-Splendored Thing.” Now that is what I call…A Walk to Remember…
