politicians let’s see how you really living on minimum wage

what the fuck they must have time machines 
cuz this shit ain’t been the same

go head, go ahead share your hate & let’s peek in that brain 

USA
really think you free, you can’t see the-   cage 


you never met them or knew bout they business but you think you do cuz you follow a page 
thats been spreading their private events like a sickness, thats gossip & i avoid that like the plague
my Rigor-mortise just set in its feeling like heaven cuz this worlds been dead for some days 
& my ma thought becuz she pushed me out I didn't get a voice but I see now she stuck in her ways
I did not have an opinion, nor did I have choices thats just the way I was raised 
& now I will not comfortably do a job if I'm not happy ma don't give a fuq what it pays
"you were so sweet when you were just a baby" now look at me ma clearly shit aint the same
Because most people see me assuming that everything perfect, I'm too good at hiding this pain 
 this lil succubus wanna go lie on my name knowing how much of my heart I gave 
feeling like jack how I navigate mazes, freezing to death while the fam run away
even if this little girl proceed to do me dirty its sad but you won't see me phased
ill be surprised if i make it to 30 cuz truthfully I deal with betrayal everyday 
threaten with death but I aint much afraid, angels with me I aint catching no strays
they still in shock how I overcame all this I come back just to see the look on their face
why is you wasting so much of our time baby girl just let me know you tryna get laid
everyone knows but they’d rather be lied too  weirdly seems the truth is the price that I paid
saved,

speaking off the cuff
all my loved ones dust
stay tucked in the cut 
souls not gold its rust
keep that on the hush
smoke almighty push
hold cards up my sleeve
this that royal flush

-

can’t be your crutch, 
still working on myself
all that betrayal changed how i felt 
running out of shots still tryna pelt
living lies & we wear it like a pelt 
say you got the bands 
had to order well
kick me while I'm down now ya need my help
think you understand
-
close to my limits they can never tell
what you get outta hoping that I fail 
we can all agree whole world frail 
think you leading - you just follow trials
stacking cheese - dodging all the L's
love your child - we've been raising hell
moving vile - ready with the shells
copy styles - why this show & tell 
when you gon release slate what the hell huh
-

get the wire through the zelle huh

Whatcha think god gon give you when you been praying that I don’t Prevail huh

roots in the swamp run deep got some fam living in the delta 

y'all know the system unseen Nobody ever gonna tell ya

streets same as the pharmacy you're bound to die off what they Sell ya

asking if i go to therapy new girl looking like zelda 

killed off old parts of me but I'm still sorry if i failed ya 

squeezing through like pardon me won't believe what I'm bout to tell ya

|ROYALFLUSH|

tryna box me in like Yang ming 
don't know what we feel, we'd just rather say things 
stays quiet nobody know what he facing 
Wild, they say life is mei-ling 

learned a bit of law from a baddie in hastings
everythings addictive its pain we've been chasing 
batch fear, losing my friends to some laced things 
last year, losing my friends to some casings

-
look at the ones you’re praising
they act stupid 
all of that complaining 
but won't do shit 
only thing their changings
into new fit
you got swag but that don’t make good music
absorb all the hating 
thats my new trick
these days no more chasing no more new chicks
seems as soon as I found love I lose it
never had it couldn’t even prove it 
-

Acting Lucius, till they pull out the Draco 
Im not with that “whatever she say go”
got a hole up in my center like bagel  
hot + cold its clear your core is unstable 
words ain’t light to me please watch what you say, 
Claim you love me, I’m like cool but don’t play hoe 
stay around bcuz you need me to save ya, 
cant believe in love you've never been faithful
world giving out ungenuine praise
If I refuse it then I am ungrateful
so its reduce reuse recycle 
& still to this day the boy never wasteful

-
only care becuz you see the potential
takes a pandemic to make us essential 

energy wasted invest in yourself, don't focus on how Im treating my temple 
guarantee even with infinite wealth you'd still find reasons this life uneventful

might as well say it I know you gon hear i did too much for you & feeling regretful
-

We do drugs & they wonder why we die young 
I gave up on Finding me the right one 

Someone want me dead it’s already done 
felt everything never been numb

EXTRACTS is a podcast series about how artists are working to reimagine the potential futures of mined, excavated, and extractivist landscapes hosted by Sarah Comyn and Megan Kuster. 

In episode 2 of Extracts, hosts Sarah and Megan talk to Rhiannon Gwyn about her work.

Rhiannon Gwyn was raised in Sling near Bethesda - a quarrying village in North Wales, a place that has, and continues to strongly influence her creative practice.

In 2019 Rhiannon graduated with a first class Artist Designer: Maker degree from Cardiff School of Art and Design. On the course she was encouraged to experiment with a variety of materials and their processes and found her interest to be with slate and clay, now her practice seeks to discover new possibilities in the crafting of these materials.

You can find more information about Rhiannon Gwynn's work at https://www.instagram.com/rhiannongwyn.artist

The music is from the South African performance art ensemble ‘The Brother Moves On’.

SLATE - SMOKE N' DRINK

So cometh a Thursday?
So cometh a small rant 
from a guy named Mudd, 
who doesn't really have a catch phrase
that rhymes with his own name. 
That's how we're shoving off from shore tonight. 
weigh anchor, hoist the sails 
and pour a glass of merlot.

The Blank  Slate Cometh 12 4 25

Bambino: One shop destroyed. Three heads split like overripe melons. One man wounded and one castrated. All in two hours. Just two hours I left you alone. Two hours.
Trinity: Well, you asked me to give you a hand.
