thats largely why i didnt preface the poem on some
"ode to hiphop" nonsense.
i wanted it to be interpreted how the reader saw fit, but hip hop is what assisted me in getting this out. my muse, if you will. but the young lady i mentioned earlier is who really got me started on it all. i just thought i'd let you in on the creative process.
hope i ain't dumb it down any by telling you i was writing on hip hop.
