The BLACK HISTORY MONTH Honoree I Owe An Apology

________________________________________________________________________________________________

From the opening scene of
I had a sudden burst 
of respect for
the actor portraying
a clerk in a music store
 
More than 2000 times,
I have walked/jogged
or driven by
the music studio
where Calvin Broadus
first recorded his music
but
—for the life of me—
I find 
ninety-nine-point-nine
percent of rap music
unlistenable
 
For more than 800 days,
there is a sidewalk image
of the studio building
on this computer's
desk top
as a reminder
to create a page about 
a legendary product from 
a Long Beach high school
but I have yet
to post the page
to be entitled
"A Dogg's Tale"
 
That image is 
posted below
 
Therefore 
please accept my apology
for not yet
having done so
 
Mr. Dogg,
you are a credit
to the human race
