Poem for the next man I fall in love with and who falls in love with me

I am leaping so hard into your heart
you bruise with the pain of it,
I crash land,
filling your hollow places with words,
the drumming of my heart beat,
melting you with kisses,
shining my light on your hurt
'til your shadows fall away
and your strength rises,
filling out tow person world
with so much laughter our hearts burst

[ V E R S I O N ] roots + future dub

this event has been a long time coming. it's happening too often these days that people are tossing around the word "dub" and putting it on things that aren't necessarily. a good example being - all "dubstep" is not "dub". so, the MAIN reason in putting this sweet lil' line-up together is to celebrate and dig deeper into the realms of dub music and dub mentality, AND a nice by-product is also helping to define better "what is dub in vancouver in these days of light?".
