Here's some rejected pieces from Fern Mcfern's Hip hop for highbrows(January to August 2009 version)
Hip hop for highbrows(rejected portions that might not be so bad after all)
Thoreau said we live lives of quiet desperation
But desperation is now in stereo sound
If you don’t know what I’m talking about
You’re a newbie rube.
a link and two words
YOU TUBE
Our most famous poet is maya angelou
What would Dylan Thomas do?
Alchohol poisoning on pinot?
Pass me the heroin
fuck that mochachino
We need a divine DJ, yo
Like
That would be me
Dj ice floe
Paris salons are gone
so are smoky saloons
Camus would crash his car
while listening to the music he downloaded from
I tunes
Peeps are networking on the net
Typing out fierce opinions about reality t v errs
To those they’ve never met
When Allen Ginsburg wrote Howl
He couldn’t have foreseen that
It would be not suitable for Americas got talent’s producer-
Simon Cowell
Now we got to hear about widgets and bit torrents
Whethere we be stuck in America
Or vacationing in Florence
Italy, see?
Classical Culture
clashing with this too new technology
Torrents and Florence ain’t
Good rhyming
But I can make it work
Out loud
Cause I got some good azz timing.
Still can’t get over
How the same birds and bees
Results in either a Howard Stern
Or a Euripides
All of this shit making me feel ballistic
How soon we forgot about the Greeks
When we got all monotheistic.
Now them Greeks had some Heros
But Greekwise, most of us
only know about that tzatizki shit
They put on Gyros.
I feel kind of fancy
Knowing how to prounounce that greek specialty
God love the british and they loyalty
To tea.
Who wrote that crazy shit?
I'll own it:
Me!
I’m trying to express how at least the queen and tea offer some
Tradition
But maintaining tradition sure ain’t
My ambition
So, I’ll stop with matter
And hope my rhyming gets phatter.
I got me a case of the nasties
I need a friend
Someone as cool
As eclessiastes
That dude meant something entirely different
Than Jenna elfman and the major networks
When discussing the seasons
But I fear that rhyme failed
As My desire to provide ya’ll and myself some
Rhyme or reasons.
I’m starting to hate this
And I got to go and Piss…
This spell checker keeps capitalizing
The first word of each line
And I’m realizing that someone might interpret it like I think I’m all
inventive
Like Gertrude Stien.
Whatever, let them see what they want
Allz I know is that I’m DJ Ice floe and
I’m here to unharsh your low!
Modern pop psychology decrees:
take it easy, let it go, move on
then I think how punk is as dead as Ted Kennedy(s)
so lost
DJ ice floe gets all contemplative come
yom kippur
stupid ass thoughts too like
how we lost Jack Tripper!
Ya know … John Ritter
but we can we still can follow
Suzzanne Sommers on the home shopping network
And Twitter.
The ellipis up there is to signify MTOT
FYI, MTOT means my train of thought.
TMI?
The profusion of acronyms feels like a virus
caught From too much Blu rays
And Miley Ass Cyrus
Whatever, I'm aight.
Allz I know is that I’m DJ Ice floe and
I’m here to unharsh your low!
