I'm still choking back emotion from the inspiration and admiration of Taylor Mali's piece. Can't wait to share it with my teen grandkids. <BR/>Now, Black Ice, whew! This guy is something. I had to listen to both parts twice to get the main theme. At first I was distracted by the language but heard enough to replay and truly listen to his full strength admonitions. This is potent stuff to me, but I wonder if it isn't everyday language and attitude for many young kids today. I'm oblivious to it in my sanitized little world, but if what I see on the news and all the mediums of communication is half as bad as it is, then these are the modern day prophets. I'll have to wait till later to listen to Suheir Hammand, my internet filter began buzzing and blazing when I clicked on the link, ironic huh.<BR/>Love DadFCBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741867097151481332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5573548.post-5791067776698818082008-04-30T15:53:00.000-07:002008-04-30T15:53:00.000-07:00Yes...I was so moved by his message...granted it w...Yes...I was so moved by his message...granted it was hard core but it was absolute truth telling and it was as you put it 'electrifying" indeed. Dare I say prophetic? I felt like his words had thunder and lightning in them. I know some people will have a problem with the language and subject matter but this is where people live...profanity and all. If ever there was an argument for the difference between profanity and cursing...this showed the difference, at least to me. Either way...I would pay money to hear this poet speak...been a long time since I said that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577334211297012754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5573548.post-836115747563251872008-04-30T15:20:00.000-07:002008-04-30T15:20:00.000-07:00Dude, Black Ice was electric.
