"Get Off My Back" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Liner pen on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] Remember the movie, GOLDEN CHILD??? "Get you monkey off my back!" Ha! Oh, Eddie... You're so funny! (Was it really a dream?) What's your favorite, old, bad movie??

"Alien Artifact (Maybe)" by RFY (HF)
[Digital drawing created with an old, out-of-service, sketch app on my phone.] Found in my cereal bowl. Probably an ancient evil!

Let's play some tunes and post some art and be old weirdos!!!
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
---2 Unlimited - "Get Ready"
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I have a sense of humor. You probably have one, too, or you wouldn't be reading this. My point to life, my MISSION, is to have fun. At the moment, I'm listening to this music via Cowin E7, Bluetooth headphones. Very fancy! (I bought them several years ago for one of my daughter's ex-boyfriends, who LUCKILY evaporated before Xmas, so I could keep the ear-huggers! They're super-neato!)
I figure I'm just going to play some music that I'm in the mood for, maybe drop a note or two in the "chat," (even though there ain't nobody else here but me...), and share some ARTZ online. It's a good plan. [I COULD consider this all a spell, in that I'm an OLD SCHOOL, Church of DIM believer, so I absolutely engage with the concept that CONSUMING the artistic works of creators is a form of COMMUNION with those ENTITIES, even (possibly ESPECIALLY) if they're no longer with us in PHYSICAL FORM! Thus, listening to recordings of performers EVOKES those creators and allows us to BREATHE IN their wisdom and essences... That's good...]

Message for the nobodies in the room: "Where my FREAKS at?? I mean, this track (by Son on Sam) is a fookin' BANGER!!! Sorry all you humanoids missed out!"

"Yellow Horse (And Friend)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen, gel pen, brush pen, paint pen, metallic marker, and colored pencil on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color tweaking...] Running in the jungle... (Why is that horse in the jungle? Why is it yellow? Is this a bad dream???) A horse is a horse...

Tired as a flattened smurf... We do what we do, and there ain't much that I can complain about... (Except, maybe, wishing I had a robot back instead of this shitty, tatered, bone and gristle back that I'm stuck with now (after decades of crashing skateboards and packing DJ gear [including heavy-ass speakers] up and down flights of stairs to entertain yuppies at weddings and birthday parties...) Uuuummm... Sure...
LATER!
