Left Eye’s rap from “No Scrubs”
See, if you can’t spacially expand my horizon
Then that leaves you in the class with scrubs, never rising
I don’t find it surprising
and if you don’t have the Gs
To please me and bounce me here to the coast of over seas
So, let me give you something to think about
Inundate your mind with intensions to turn you out
Can’t forget the focus on the picture in front of me
You as clear as DVD on digital TV screen
Satisfy my apetite with something spectacular
Shake your vernacular
and then I get back to ya
With diamond like precision
Insatiable is what I envision
Can’t detect acquisition
from your friend’s expedition
Mr. Big Willy, if you really want to know
Ask Chilli, could I be a silly ho?
Not really
T-Boz and all my senoritas
are steppin’ on you Filas
but you don’t hear me, no

From the publisher… “Tyler Gillespie’s SRP debut is a hybrid of prose- and poetry-fueled vignettes that create what poet Matthew Loney calls ‘something resembling a heirloom quilt – torn, ragged, stained and deeply loved.”
We do not choose our family. We love them or want to love them. We embrace them or run from them. We leave them or become them.
[excerpt]
For almost a year after their wedding, my mother and father lived together in the backseat of my father’s van and ate out of vending machines. They traveled from gig to gig as my father’s band played in smoky bars and pool halls for little money. When my mother found out she was pregnant, she stop
ped smoking cigarettes and drinking rum and always sat in the front seat of the van.
