Puttin' on the Dog: At the 14th Annual Celebration of Black Writing, 1998for "Corner Girt" Is my shit correct? Is my vine correct? Are my kicks political division or correct?? Is my "do" down? Is my shit correct? Is my rusty black diction correct? Should my at any time more erudite utterances be in "The Vernacular?" Should my presentation be theatrical and spectacular? Is my shit correct? Should my manner be mannered and laid back?? Is my verse Poesy? Does it move too far into haute couture noir? Does it draw near from hard facts and Fanon, or does it leave repeatedly to The Canon, trippin' in Trickster style tryin' to Trop-A-Dope????? Is my shit correct?
