For My Disappointing Hip Hop Heroes

Most of us tried to jump of rooftops and threatened to slit our wrists at 14.
Only some succeeded and missed out on the late nineties' underground rap scene.
By 18 it felt beautiful to be man, to stick your dick in pussy holes 'til it got red.
The college girls tasted like diner food and cigarette sauce.
Now the grown girls taste like a dust and years of regret protein blend.
Even whores won't touch you with a stick
'til you shave your face and lose the weight you gained in LA,
'til you start convincing people that you're not sick,
and start to smile
at the babies and the puppies and the passersby
with symmetrical bodies and rhythmic strides
hidden well beneath the fog of Guilford
you've got nostalgia to kill tonight.

It's been so fucking long since you've had a hero
that didn't disappoint or die.

Ceschi New Haven, Connecticut

Ceschi (pronounced chess-key) Ramos makes his own version of progressive hip hop spliced with elements of folk & indie rock.
