I-Wayne - Living In Love



Intro:
Mmmhmmm
Warrr
Mmm
If them didnt know
Let them know!

Verse 1:
I love to see my people living in love
I hate to see them fighting and swimming in blood
Nuff neglect the farming the scorning in the mud
Yet they want to be the first to reap the fruit as it bud...OHHH!
They fill the earth with prison church and whore house
Love the rum bar yet them hate the pure house
Dem take the microchip and now a wrath a pour out
Less food more drought and more mouth... ohhh

Chorus:
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go till the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil
Fi di coil so many go defile
Slave master spit inna dem face dem tek dat wit a smile
Di banks of the nile so mild and so fertile acres more than a zillion mile
People acting vile pick up cannibal style
wah devour mama papa and child... ohh

Verse 2:
Sew life seed it and mek it buss her
dem sey dem ting dem tek too long fi grow and start to cuss her
I couldn't trust some of those as how I trust her
Such is life dem say ah just her
I see Cassia Heights weh dem call di squater land
Some sey fi government some sey fi Mathalon
Still no wan share although dem got alot ah land
Dem wan fi turn a gun range and shotta land

Chorus:
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go till the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil
Fi di coil so many go defile
Slave master spit inna dem face dem tek dat wit a smile
The banks of the nile so mild and so fertile acres more than ah zillion mile
The people acting vile pick up cannibal style
wah devour mama papa and child

Verse 3:
Politician ah talk certain tings dem nah mention
Sey ah drugs and gun people tax money spend pon
Come wit plastic smile and dem wicked intention
Inna ya hand a where dem put dem evil invention
Turn gun model seeking attention
See it deh now ya dead and it is no redemption
Parents ah wonder where to get the first cent from
To bury the dirt dem not even got pension

Chorus:
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go til the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil
Fi di coil so many go defile
Slave master spit inna dem face dem tek dat wit a smile
Di banks of the nile so mild and so fertile acres more than ah zillion mile
The people acting vile pick up cannibal style
wah devour mama papa and child

Verse 4:
I love to see my people living in love
I hate to see them fighting and swimming in blood
Nuff neglect the farming scorning the mud
Yet they want to be the first to pick the fruit as it bud... ohh
they turn the earth inna prison church and whore house
Love the rum bar but they hate the pure house
Dem take the micro chip and now a wrath a pour out
Less food more mouth and more drought

Chorus:
Rasta tell dem all the while
Stop war and go till the soil
Stop fighting for land and oil
Fi the coil so many go defile
Slave master spit inna dem face dem tek dat wit a smile
Da banks of the nile so mild and so fertile measures more than ah zillion mile
People acting vile dem pick up cannibal style
wah devour mama papa and child!!

मोरे फॉर थे door

So I been REALbusy, including making time for one of my all-time favorite pastimes: making shapes with colors, better known as drawing and painting....
I did the blue stuff on my birthday...:

I'm nowhere close to being done, but I feel that I have made some crucial progress in the past couple of weeks...



Here's a closeup:

मोरे please

People have been asking me about my blog, and wondering why I haven't updated it in a awhile.. There's one main reason: which I'm not going to reveal here.

But I will make this post, dedicated to blog technologies which I have recently encountered. The first is visible on the lovely Madeleine's Colombia photoblog. Make sure you click "Image Info", cuz Maddie's a journalist and she writes some quietly stirring captions to her photos.

Then my friend Liliana's new blog, which uses this simpleblogging technology.

Okay, so the reason I haven't made any updates is because I was mainly just using this blog to archive songs I'd found on Youtube-type sites, for listening to music that I can only access through the web. Well I've found a much more useful way to do that. Click To Visit My Playlust[sic] .

Happy?!
Okay, now I gotta get back to work. Ciao!

पेंटिंग Progress



This is the 'grid' which will be the structural basis for the painting as it develops further.
I will be exploring the concepts: Compare and Contrast, Conflict and Contract.
Opposing bodies will define and challenge each others space....

PLOPE

I finally got my test server for working on Plone/Zope . . .PLOPE..

Actually it looks like there's a mountain of information to ascend before I can fly through and do my thing...
No problem, that's what they're payin me for...

On the Plone website there was a gallery of Plone-driven sites, one of which features the work of the French photographer Anne-Sophie Jal. Here's a piece that caught my attention...:



It's actually by Guillaume Léturgie, je crois, pero no se ...

Provocative

It reminded me of the article I read the other day, "What Do Women Want"... at some point the writer made a statement like, "The female body always holds the promise, the suggestion of sex..." I couldn't agree more. Feel a charge...- Oh so tantalizing...

यू'रे अ vegetable

i'm a vegetarian now.

there i said it.

i have had my mind blown by the book "Mad Cowboy" by Howard Lyman.

in short, the shit (literally) they feed the animals we eat is unacceptable, harmful, and appalling.

i'm done with it all.

i might eat an occasional carcass, cuz it IS SOOO tasty, but i will do it infrequently, and with a heavy mind .

go Veggies...

सोमेतिमेस...

weird
I wonder why the title looks like that.

Had a lot of trouble gettin up this morning. Not just cuz I was sick yesterday... &It wasn't the below zero temp i was anticipating, or even the windowless confines of my cube area at work...
I don't know, I was just feeling pretty unexcited about life. what's wrong? u ask... not sure.
cuz later (like a minute ago), I was simply reading about SQL Server Analysis Services, and all of a sudden i felt this sudden jolt of excitement,- eagerness, or somethin

Where did THAT come from?

but i have those moments, where i get so excited about something so mundane that i can't wait to explore it more.. usually this feeling involves a young lady.
but there is currently no significant other (sigh);

i hate to just bury' myself in my work, but what else is there? my best friends are gone, my other friends are hard to find, and it's tooo coold to go dancing,,,, so what else?

guess i might as well just git paid.

Love's Holiday

Would you mind?

Tuesday, January 6, 2009

Muy fuerte

I feel like I could go outside, pick up my car, and throw it across the lot...

I feel liberated... vindicated...

but not quite satiated.

But that's what homemade dinners are for!

It's a new year, huh?

2009.
So it's finally here.

I intend to spend my evenings building the business I've told many about over the past couple of years.
I'm in the process of defining the branding/identity. I think I can make it happen this year if I'm diligent, determined, and persistent: Basically the same approach I took to old habits I will put into a new business in this new year.

What else is there to do? We fight we love but sometimes it doesn't matter. I know now more than ever that I have can only count on myself in this cold ass world. I'm so tempted to retreat into eternal solitude, but I know there is more to do and see. And why not? I mean, I'm still here somehow, so let's DANCE!
