Junkyard Quote 4, Week 2
Almost as soon as I clicked the "Publish" button on my last post, I discovered a new junkyard quote that I wanted to use! Naturally, I have lost the love I used to have for "American Idol." Therefore, I only watch the auditions of every season, since they are, after all, the best part! Tonight they just so happened to be in Atlanta, and the last man to audition was a 62-year-old veteran who sang a rap he made up that basically went, "Pants on da ground! You look like a fool wit yo' pants on da ground!" And, though I must admit my part in laughing at his attempt to woo the judges, his performance almost immediately made me think of Philip Levine's poem "They Feed They Lion." Maybe there's potential in this man's unique language!
