ACT:1 .. moving in slowly then sprinting a path always reasoning the cost of one, then two.. they keep, I'll be resetting the finish driving to get tonight, whilst the day slumbers along.. fickle they tend to retaliate, venge then become illist of all,, my poor put narrsative trophy.. wait for me,,.. no more, hide away none the more over, kiss your room to the greatingly haze forged perfume..
Standard yeldings of thorobred, cause the slain of misfortunte as costly colored flakes tilling the after,.. we while what the flags repeat, we ruin to this song kinderd momento gave your first sight.. Obleek second mention of fonderly gale wind admist docking hounds, wish me a drum so I may beat to my drowning tounge.. thirst was evidential amore mere salvant poisoned gospel to which three yelds in complaints..
Berdun whaler, benine teething, harsh wet molding lace, grows jackel covant of pale eyes.. must these deemable pilons forge needled spines, vested are those marginal graphs of tuft skin, taught is likenly ripped of flesh, sawt was this poem fathered of sanities gall and strife.. here evermore lasting light, here evermore lasting a dead the night.. soiled…
ACT: 2 .. reconance learns flight..

Fiddlin' Doc Roberts, James Roberts, & Asa Martin-Charleston No. 1
Recorded on Friday, February 3, 1933 in New York, New York for A.R.C. Records.
Fiddlin' Doc Roberts was born near Richmond, Kentucky on April 26, 1897 and named Dock Phil Roberts in honor of a certain Doc Phillips who assisted at the birthing. Little Dock appears to have learned to fiddle on his own by emulating his big brother Liebert. His first public role model was a fiddling African-American bandleader named Owen Walker who worked out of Richmond.While participating in a fiddling tournament in Winchester, Roberts hooked up with guitarist and fiddler Edgar Boaz of Paris, Kentucky. The duo took to performing at schools and theaters, and in early 1925, traveled north to Cincinnati to audition for a Gennett field recording unit which was stationed there at that time. After playing "My Baby Loves Shortenin' Bread" they were invited to visit Gennett's main facility in Richmond,
Indiana and did so in October and November of 1925 and again in October of 1926. During these excursions, the duo provided accompaniments for vocalist Welby Toomey. In 1927, after Boaz decided to relocate, Doc Roberts then teamed up with mandolinist Ted Chesnut and guitarist Dick Parman to make records for Paramount under the name The Kentucky Thorobreds.
On August 26 and 27, 1927 Doc Roberts had his first opportunity to record with an electrically powered microphone, now in the company of African-American guitarists John and Joe Booker, going by the name Taylor's Kentucky Boys. The intermingling of black and white musicians was still fairly uncommon in recording studios at that time, but is indicative of the shared musical traditions of country, blues and folk music that flourished in Kentucky (and elsewhere) during the early 20th century.
Doc Roberts met guitarist Asa Martin at a fiddling contest in Winchester and struck up a working relationship that would result in what are now regarded as Roberts' best recorded works. Most intriguing are a series of blues records they cut during the early ‘30s. Martin sang a little, blew harmonica, and even emitted square dance calls on a few of their records. Roberts also performed with his son, guitarist James, fiddler Oney Muse, and Lexington guitarist and vocalist Arthur Rose.
Doc Roberts was also a capable mandolinist, and used the instrument on at least five different records made over the course of six years beginning in 1928. His final Gennett recording date took place in August, 1934. Although James Roberts and Asa Martin would continue to play professionally, Doc withdrew from public performance. James recorded his father at home during the '50s and some of this material was released in 1981 on Visits, a compilation produced by Ray Alden. Late in life, Doc Roberts did emerge from retirement to perform at Berea College in southernmost Madison County. His final appearance there was in July, 1971, in the company of his son and Asa Martin. Doc Roberts passed away in 1978, and Asa died the following year.
Even though he spent much of his life farming and performed mainly on weekends, Kentucky long bow legend Fiddlin' Doc Roberts was a very influential country musician who, during the years 1925-1934, cut about 70 sides under his own name, most of which were reissued by Document.

I love my little town from Kentucky. My heart lives there in the rolling hills. It runs with the fields of Thorobreds. I love the smell of the baccer in the morning. I love the people there. I shouldn’t have to leave my home to be safe. I shouldn’t have to leave my family to be accepted. It is my home. It is my home.
white trans ppl from liberal suburbia in blue states will go on and on about how scary it is to be a trans person right now but the second they encounter a trans person from a red state they’ll be like “ummmmm why would you live in such an uncivilized place lmao maybe you shouldn’t have voted for republicans like if you don’t like how conservative it is then just leave” as if these states aren’t populated by black and brown people who face intense voter suppression and poor people who can’t just up and leave. not to mention the fact that all those articles y’all are sharing about the state of trans safety? those are in our states and we will be the ones who go down first. so instead of laughing at us dumb hicks from your liberal safe haven, consider instead shutting the fuck up and actually doing something to help us. because they’re coming for you next.
