And Then

I recently fell into Australian artist Julie Fragar. Fell real hard.

Here's why:

LYRICISM : Marianne Faithful

Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan
What are you fighting for ?
It's not my security.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
Don't say it in German.
Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.

Lose your father, your husband,
Your mother, your children.
What are you dying for ?
It's not my reality.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
Don't say it in German.
Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.

What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?

Could have come through anytime,
Cold lonely, puritan.
What are you fighting for ?
It's not my security.

It's just an old war,
Not even a cold war,
Don't say it in Russian,
Don't say it in German.

Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.
Say it in broken English,
Say it in broken English.

What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting for ?
What are you fighting ...

Someone Else's Shoes // 20

Finally.

It's been far too long since my last eye-to-eye contact with a pretty set of feet wear. Since more favorable weather's creeping in - the shoes follow.

I just had to capture this pair whilst crossing the street.

Damn, Now I Hunger

Madlib & Strong Arm Steady collab to form In Search Of Stoney Jackson.

This particular track is epicurean in wonder:

"...dating vegetarian - vegan women / drinking water with lemon / low sodium salt / no pork on her fork after a meal she takes a long walk..."

C'mon!

Planet Asia's featured on it, too.

Sunny Lesson Learned

I definitely took in the daylight when it came out to play yesterday. It actually felt like an 'actual Sunday'.

I strolled, bike at my hip, zig-zagging through Stuyvesant Heights with my chin up.

Gazing:

Thaddeus Stevens:

"The Great Commoner, savior of free public education in Pennsylvania, national Republican leader in the struggles against slavery in the United States and intrepid mainstay of the attempt to secure racial justice for the freedmen during Reconstruction, the only member of the House of Representatives ever to have been known, as the 'dictator' of Congress."
