![One of her babys makes [me] feel like I I fell in love for the first
time
multiplied 100 times
I'm
Lost in the thought of her saying baby it makes me weak
it makes me feel like my heart skipped a beat.
It makes me feel like my insides shifted
this is what it must be like to feel splifted
almost like being Holy Ghost lifted
Every letter and both syllables sneaks in to my ears and down
my spine
and for the briefest of time
I'm
two-hundred and twenty-five pounds of quivering jello
Solid, tangible, visible, but just like jello
she sees right through me and with the softest touch she
passes right through
it's like my heart is that orange slice in the center she's trying to
get to
I don't always do
what she wants me to do
She uses that word like she's a jockey with a whip
And I'm her stallion chomping at the bit](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/376191_77b341d254ba417ebb2fe7281ed8b350~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1080,h_1080,q_90,enc_avif,quality_auto/376191_77b341d254ba417ebb2fe7281ed8b350~mv2.png)
![The first page of the untitled poem featured in Ep. 39 Capture Land is displayed on wrinkled paper with pink flowers and a green stem pressed into the page. The bottom corners of the page are burned.
The poem begins:
The land is barren now.
What used to be trees and flourishing fauna, is now just concrete.
After they came through, admiring the abundance of nature and it's beauty, they settled on a price.
"200 million seems reasonable."
They didn't ask the trees if they'd be at peace with the new occupants.
They didn't ask the deer, the jaguars, the beavers, or the ants.
Honestly, it's not even clear who they were negotiating with.
[italized] No one spoke like that around here.
We never needed to negotiate a price because things were never taken rather
exchanged recycled returned.
The price sounded like robbery.
The rubbery skin of the questionnaire pulled back exposing bigger, whiter teeth tan even the jaguar or so it had seemed.
They left and didn't return until we had forgotten they were ever here.
Moss grew over their imprints until,
suddenly,
they returned.](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/376191_c99ef2170b164b82b197e1dd82cfc368~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1080,h_1080,q_90,enc_avif,quality_auto/376191_c99ef2170b164b82b197e1dd82cfc368~mv2.png)
![The poem is written across an image of a blue sky with wisps of clouds at the bottom left corner that spreads across the bottom of the image and small wisps at the top right corner. There are images of flocks of birds in both the bottom left and top right corners. The title of the poem, Say My Name, is written in white cursive font. The author's full name, Tiara Sivells, is written amongst the clouds in the lower half of the image.
The poem reads:
I fear if I forget u
I will lose u forever
If it were only a few,
It might be easier to remember
So I whisper ur name
Softly, then all at once.
Trying to overcome the shame
That these are all fronts
When u say it with ur chesst
Do u know u must continue?
To organize, to overcome, to relieve the stress
No matter the venue
And when she forgets ur name, temporarily
Unintentionally, she wishes to live life
She works to work momentarily
Perhaps, not understanding that this strife
[italicized] Is collectively felt
[italicized] Disrespectfully dealt
To us
For us
Is it generational wealth
Or happiness and health
That we are searching for
Always alluding towards?
Is pain the only thing worth sharing?](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/376191_d9430c25547a4add9da765dc1f7c92fd~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1080,h_1080,q_90,enc_avif,quality_auto/376191_d9430c25547a4add9da765dc1f7c92fd~mv2.png)

What is Give U Blues?
Give U Blues is a show that was created in response to the lack of conversation about R&B in mainstream media. DJ The Sweetest T wanted to showcase and dive into the roots of R&B and show how many genres of music are and have been influenced by the blues. Not only can you listen to mixes of amazing songs but also hear from different artists about their blues.
