I love like tomorrow is tempting me to stay here
in today
I am
I write like gods wrist are at my pen tip
and I'm trying to catch the ink on my lip
I spit
I speak as if this is the alpha and omega of my voice,
I have this chance
I inhale it
My mind goes where I let it
i am not smoke, spliffs, or cigars
though I find my self frequently fondaling the product of fire
in more ways than one.
I love the sun,
Mesmorized by the moon
satuarated by the sky
find me with a number of things in my grip
and on my mind.
Music
Reggae is redemption
like red haired reefa on a cool night
it makes me feel right
Hip Hop is subject to the user
or abuser
I love to bob my head,
but if its not to more than, crack, cars, an lead
i aint diggin it
i wish we could keep hip hop at home
back when it was flyin over my dome
forced my to bury bones underground
Jazz sometimes
reminds me of Jonathon
like korim was never here
just jonathon and a saxaphone hanging out his ear
coltrane clacks down the track
and I snap
Music my muse
Movies
Television
Watch Korim
Books
This is where I have left myself
This is where my wonders wonder
stop to smell the marigolds scent
I sent myself here
and this is where I am.
I've known.
I've found out.
I've missed.
That this,
is where I have left myself

So much of me has been there, all of me is here now. Now there is much to be done, the road is not straight, though it is narrow, my feet [I know] will bring me to where I am to be.
Many days have danced so oddly in front of me. The tango is one I am trying so hard to learn. Its more the music, not the steps, that give my feet trouble.
How I love
How I live
The life I am a part of started in such a suttle satchel. Sore Soles, Walks in city streets with sore souls, poetry, and more than a few blunts later, i find myself fitted for the future.
"The nothingness will whisper its will into the deepest parts of your chest. It understands there; that thought without shouting fingers can only cover, not hold. There is no cadence in the creation of the conscience." -korim
I am a mind with an appreciation for the blessing of words and thought. This is why I write.
I've found that my voice is one with purpose, I try to put the sound of me in as many people as possible. I think its crazy how spirits interact with each other. Through love, hate, contempt, or admiration, how beautiful it is to know that there are parts of your life that exist in the exact same time and space as parts of mine. Like you reading what I'm writing now. Or you listening to a poem that I recite. If your ears do not hear me, or do not hear anything, and the ability is there, than what are they there for? Because of this belief, my ears hear me often, this is why I speak.
There is a certain size crater you leave on the surface of now when your little spirit is flung from the heavens and out of mothers womb. From that second, it is up to you what you choose to fill and decorate that crater with. I've made it a point, that the proof of my impact is lovely. I've smeared myself on the walls, and I'm confident that what created me, thinks of me no less than beautiful. As do I. I am determined to share this art with as many as possible, till I have the colors of the world hidden in my story. This is why I live.
I know that you will take from me what is intended. Please, Be beautiful, and know that life is lovely.
Blessings Korim
Who I'd like to meet: One day I'll meet the world.
Me and Her will walk to the end of earth and jump
we'll luagh as we fall.
and when the wind slicing through our hair grows hands
it will hold us there
exactly where we are to be.
Knowledge of me comes like salvation,
sometimes even to myself,
always beautiful in the end,
but the need for saving is never pretty.
That is where they differ.
I will meet you one day
we will walk on top of our tongues
until our feet grow tired of conversation.
We'll simply study the stretches of our skin then.
One day,
we will realize,
that me and you are both so beautiful.
HappY ßiRTHday Jon! i hope you enjoy your day. You deserve it man. YouRe such an inspiration. ..And i really admire what you do. Best BiRthday Wishes.. [kiara]
