THIS IS NOT DIRECTED TO ANY ONE CAT--JUST IN GENERAL...


Y'all are focusing on more surface, sentence-level questions than a first year student taking English as a second language.

(a little teaching humor... ha... ha...)


O-kay, no for real. It's not as bad as bible-interpreters who find magical three word phrases which "prove that we are supposed to be slaves" and that type of nonsense, but it's the same logic.

WITH LOVE, i submit, that the messages in ANYTHING have to be found by a whole read, we're reacting to phrases, and not sentiment sometimes. It's gut reaction, it's not enlightened reaction.


Moreso, this is completely different, all that i just type is "in general"

Y'all forget that rap is poetry, and poetic messages aren't literal.

One of my best published works is about finding dragons, sexiness, and being eaten by dragons. Does it have anything to do with that? No, it's about my lady's sister and funny feelings (if you know what I'M sayin'... )

students fighting teachers and getting taken out in handcuffs...

You can't approach that with your Dad hats on--that's not what's it's about.

if fighting is arguing, it's accurate, students get thrown out of schools for nothing in urban settings, and they're ignored everyone screams it's the teachers fault.

if fighting is fighting, fine, ya, dad this, dad that, but that's not what it's about. What is the best thing for a messed up cat to do? TO LEARN. The removal in handcuffs is a metaphor for furning our backs on cats who need it most.

Dead-Prez Hip-Hop poetics is not about practicality and sentence-level syntax--it's about exposing fringe shit that happens alot more than dads and suburban cats are willing to accept.

If we approach it as just a couple of cats interested in the message, it's as smooth as a baby's handcuffs.
