I thought I’d try a twist to my usual randomness.<\/p>\n
If you’ve read any of my other writing, you may notice a recurring theme throughout: transcendence & self-transformation (yeah yeah – I’ve got a little new-age hippie hiding somewhere inside me). Anyway – I once recorded myself reading aloud. A particular piece I wrote – (and the only one ever) was created with music in mind that a friend had put together. I used to write a lot more rhyming things and he thought it would be fun to lace a track of his with one of them. But since I never endeavored to be a rapper, nor a spoken word artist, I used the instrumental as inspiration, let him fiddle diddle with the beats some other way, and kept my words on paper. I later recorded my naked vocal for fun. It was more of an experiment to see how well I could pace myself reading as I tend to be super quick when I do.<\/p>\n
I’ve kept it hidden away from anyone else’s ears until now.<\/p>\n
It’s a straight read, there’s some hiss – and the pacing needs work (or maybe a good edit).<\/p>\n
But, ah well…funk it….if you press play, you get to read along with me. <\/p>\n
Er…or don’t press play and just read. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Who knows how long I’ll leave this up before I chicken out and take it down.<\/p>\n
