Crab Boil (Spoken Word)
Forgive them father...for these niggas are givin DUMB.
Mercurial guided who rubs elbows with the father of time can't let shit slide cause..
they misguided..and time waits for no one..
created to heal but these wounds be in the way..
bustin' back open with every surface level conversation these niggas throw my way.. a whole projection.
BUT my projection is their protection because these pens sharpened to blades tucked in my locs show no mercy..
I got tired of the monologues and slipped into a soliloquy..
medusa wit da pen and pad so my gray matter stay on the lurk see I can't help it I'M THIRSTY..
and these niggas are waterlogged, intakin' my wisdom and tryna use it to murk me but chokin' when they realize that my hitta virgin Luna don't let their sins unearth me.. I'M GROUNDED..
kinda.
175 million tabs open at all times and the great teacher keeps EXPANDING.
..AND EXPANDING..
...AND EXPANDING..
..until they no longer fit in the frame and realize I'm the one who been doing the mishandling..
So I trip over these words spillin from my loc tips, slippin over these number two pencil Glock clips until the pot flips..
leavin me burned and my meat exposed and the only eyes I loc pupils with is them ascending twins..
my own personal Topsy and Bopsy..comfortable in the mockery..until I realize the only person bein' mocked is...
me.

Yt people!!! I HAVE A BONE TO PICK WITH YOU!!!
Why the HECK did I just find out y'all on tik tok dressing up as Topsy?! A whole racist caricature. Y'all think this is funny? That it's a joke? Not knowing is not an acceptable excuse anymore when Google is right there! You can also ask questions! Then a, forgive me cuz I got it wrong, Black father had the nerve to dress his daughters up as Topsy and Bopsy?! They aren't tv characters! They are real and represent how white ppl, especially white men, saw Black girls and women. Lovecraft Country may have had ghosts, witches, time travel and monsters but the racism was real! The Tulsa Massacre was real! Emmett Till being murdered for no reason other than being Black was real! This isn't a joke! Stop acting like y'all don't have a brain! God gave you one so you can use It! Not so that when you get called out you can say "Well I didn't know! I wasn't thinking! It just looked cool!" We've had enough of your excuses! This is why ppl don't like or trust you!

Watching Lovecraft Country reactions is so interesting, because apparently a lot of people were frustrated when Diana was in the alley on the bike and the twins were slowly approaching her from behind. Like, a lot of reactors were yelling, “They’re right behind you, move!”
When I watched the episode, my reaction was, “I like how she doesn’t even care that much anymore.” Like, I wasn’t given the impression that she didn’t know they were there or that she was in danger of being caught; I felt like, after that many hours, they were basically just hanging out and she would just run away at the last second, and keep running away in short bursts and letting them catch up while she rested.

just fyi, if you and your little friends decide to dress up as topsy and bopsy for halloween and you try and disrupt my day as I’m minding my business ....my fight-or-flight senses are going to kick in and I’m going to club you on the head and then runaway screaming....I don’t play those type of games.
tf you mean “LET ME IN”
stay your ass over at “HBO”

Topsy and Bopsy
Maybe I have just been desensitized to so much real life horror and way worse horror movies/shows, that topsy and bopsy are not really scary to me. They did have amazing chore though.
