CONNECTING MEDIUM I

CONNECTING MEDIUM I

Sea of lights heading into J.F.K. at night
scaled up megamix
of everything I knew to be
industrial, urban
i started my period on the descent
hunter moon following me
reflecting in a winding river below
guiding me
thru’ sets off t.v. cop shows
and a Black bourgeoisie
the town of Harlem
up Lennox to 132nd
