Sixth Selection, Second Quarter, 2013

A seasoned sonero singing in Soundview Park

Bronze bodies moving in chaotic unison

Scratch sounds and cowbells

Hip Hop Jazz Rock ‘n’ Roll The Blues

Salsa; drums drums drums and more drums

The James Bond intro & Dr. Who’s theme song

Bearden’s collages and Remix Theory

Blazing and fruit juices

Creative downbeats and blasting bass

Cognition that Spiderman is Batman Light

When they put his coffin in the hearse

The crowd chanted adoracion

and clapped hands to keep the clave
