Kelis, m’lady, you have brought so much joy to my life with this elctra-opulent opus, FLESHTONE. You have come at the moment I needed you most and have helped keep memory and heart alive. To stay strong and remember that distance and time are but numbers.

This album kills me. I saw you at LA PRIDE, I saw you at ROCKIT, and I’m gonna see you at WEBSTER HALL (performing w/ Robyn). Needless to say you have defined my summer with your infectious beats and unrelenting lyrics. I have forced you upon countless numbers of friends, playing your tracks repeatedly, pointing out every nuance or gracious lyric. FLESHTONE is perhaps one of the most complete, intelligent, well-produced, highly danceable, sincere, fun, and totally listenable albums, in any genre, that I have heard all year. Perhaps since Madonna released her confessions on the world. Well done KELIS. I think you deserve every bit of the success that you will undoubtedly receive from this impressive work and impressive oeuvre . Thank you thank you thank you so much.

Can’t wait to see you in August. I’ll be the one “dancing on my own” in the middle of the floor “emancipatin’ myself” if ya kno what I mean. ♥ u baby

“Never love a wild thing, Mr. Bell” Holly advised him. “That was the docs mistake. He was always lugging home wild things. A hawk with a hurt wing. One time it was full grown bobcat with a broken leg. But you can’t give your heart to a wild thing: the more you do, the stronger they get. Until they’re strong enough to run into the woods. Or fly into a tree. Then a taller tree. Then the sky. That’s how you’ll end up Mr Bell. If you let yourself love a wild thing. You’ll end up looking at the sky.”

E.A. Poe’s “Annabel Lee”

as read by James Mason

E.A. Poe’s “Annabel Lee”

(click play on the streampad bar @ the bottom of ur window)

It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
