About Me

My Space or Yours? Myspace Layouts and more at myspaceoryours.net!

Background Artist:
Anthony Davis About Me? A dangerous mess, a beautiful mix. Music, Art, Poetry, hope to weave a web of transfixion; believe that from affliction comes conviction. Disperse the cliques and discard like N'Sync tix, take pics and give it the deep six. A contradiction of terms, schooled and learned. A linear paradox of moxy, Kingdom authority and proxy. Quiet, sharp, reflective like Chess; bold, brash, in your face like Elliot Ness. Rap is freestyle, conversation worth the while. Seeking to be last that I might be first, victor in life and death, cradle to hearse. Don't like to practice, shoot like a canon; slow down, reflect, try again like Pat Buchanan.All this and more, inside my head is where I store all that you need, I'll transmit if you receive. ..

My Interests

A Psalm Of Life

There are times that someone else so aptly describes something that is going on in your own heart that to share it is like baring your own soul. This is one of those times: Tell me not, in mournf...

Labels...

Labeling seems to be something like a narcotic obsession for our culture today. We feel such a strong urge to be able to categorize people, so we know what to think (or what not to think) about them. ...
