I heard a child crying over an old man dying
she prayed to her god, "take him, not me"
she's happy to stay
but sad that he has to leave
there are scenes like these
every day by the ocean
where soldiers and lovers
leave their lives behind
they stand in lines, filthy from the mines
they stand at attention
for an honorable mention
they sit in the sand with their toes in the surf
they trade knowledge for wisdom
and magic for mirth
I let them have their way, and I go by my own
I'm a calm summer day in search of a cyclone
I'm a broken man from winter to spring
a tuneless voice with too much to sing
there's too much to recall
not enough to remember
I'm made out of memories
but I'm owned by the weather
tied by a tether to a land of nether
you and the open water,
my two loves together

Underground Industries Presents: FOUL BASS!
Featuring Lancelot & Plasmatic
An energy filled night full of grimy basslines & filthy beats, meant to melt your face! Underground has established local events at The Thirsty Whale and Pulse Nightclub, each with their own identity. Now we've decided to keep it simple & dirty, just the way we like it! We invite you to come out to your local hot spot & get down on the dance floor!
PLASMATIC (Dubstep, Grime, Drumstep, Filthy Bass)
Brandon Isaac, better known as Plasmatic flew onto the scene 2 years ago, producing his own music and DJ'ing at house parties. He hasn't looked back since. He sure to get this night dirty in a hurry!

LANCELOT (House, Dubstep, Trap, Electro)
BIO: Lancelot is a generic white kid from the Bluegrass who spins nonsense and is addicted to porn. Someday he hopes to win the lottery and become a famous vampire slayer.
He played a bomb set at Afterglow at The Stonewall in October 2012 for Underground Industries and more recently on 4/13/13 in Williamson that blew the roof off the building.
Lancelot never ceases to improve & impress. See for yourself.

Found on the River Thames (not at Clinker Beach...) - possibly one of the few products dirtier than litter itself.
Wintergreen Copenhagen - it comes from the USA - is 'pad' tobacco, which means taking a plug of the stuff and lodging it behind the lip, then spitting out streams of brown saliva. It's a manly pursuit.
It's still used today as 'snus'; some paid footballers use it.

What remains of a bluejay, a wasp's nest, a box of Sun-Maid raisins, and a newspaper from 2005. The cartoon features presumably a Québécois politician, being beheaded by a guillotine and thinking: "Separation at Last". This place suffers its own permanent division, since the last time someone slept here or took shelter, about a decade and a half ago. Closed up and left to the dust of the past, while every current moment quickly joins a faded history. I sometimes wonder what business I have making so many memories, when everyone I know is forgetful of the days. If there's a right to be forgotten, a writer and photographer is always remembering in the way. Even if I get too old to bring back what's locked in the bottom of my mind, I suppose I could always return to my memories made flesh. Leafing through the leaf litter of filthy flashbacks and rippled reflections, cognizant of the clarity I've blurred along the road. Here's one more spark staying lit.
