Joking Jesus - Navajo Poet Rutherford Ashley
running time:01:36 added by:fordtoy2000 source: YouTubeI had to post something. "The Ballad of Joking Jesus" as included in James Joyce's Ulysses. There is speculation or it may be a matter of fact that Joyce did not write the short poem/rhyme, but a friend of his did and he included it in the book as sort of a kudos or to illustrate the Irish humor. So, I'm posting things like crazy this weekend, and might as well post this. Peace. Rutherford Ashley reads his poem, "Pissing Trough"." Aka, "Ford" is Hush'clishnii and born for Ta'ba'hi. Ford Ashley currently resides in Fort Defiance, Arizona and is working on a new manuscript. Mr. Ashley aims at "slices of life" with a modernistic edge. Snr.

Blue sketch song - Navajo Ruterford Ashley Poet
running time:04:49 added by:rutherfordashley source: YouTubeThis "Blue" song sketch was recorded in early June 2008. It was one session, and I have not really had an inclination to do anything with it, just fright, that's all. But, the session recording helped me to notice things about my voice. I am working on a new version with some optimism and basic elements to keep it under 2min. 30 sec. I want to add a cello-is and get the track remixed by a DJ and then release it as a first single. January 2009 is the ETA. Peace. Rutherford Ashley, aka, "Ford" is Hush'clishnii and born for Ta'ba'hi. Ford Ashley currently resides in Fort Defiance, Arizona and is working on a new manuscript.

Talking To Starfish - Navajo Poet Rutherford Ashley
running time:03:38 added by:fordtoy2000 source: YouTubeThis poem was finished in 2001, when I published an unfinished manuscrift because some guy wanted to claim ownership over my talent, basically. But, "Talking To Starfish" is about looking at mistakes as purely aburd, especially drinking to your gills with import beer. I have grown up now and I know that indulgence in anything can cause rifts in any relationship. So, that's basically what this poem is about.

Release Thy Dove Jingle - Navajo Poet Song Rutherford Ashley
running time:05:03 added by:rutherfordashley source: YouTubeThis is a jingle of "Release Thy Dove" modified. I worked on it this fine evening of November 7, 2008. It demonstrates the difficulty in trying to translate poetry into a palpable modern ballad. Result: a jingle. LOL. I won't be able to post a modern ballad I am working on until this December.

The Pissing Trough - Navajo Poet Rutherford Ashley Beer Ale
running time:04:20 added by:fordtoy2000 source: YouTubeThis is one of the most shocking poems I've ever read at my extremely rare readings. I had no idea it was such a scorcher, but now I do, after getting re-acquainted with my Catholic church, or conservative body politic. I don't know what the big deal is with this. It is sort of tonque and cheek at how guys puffeth up el machismo. This can sometimes cause fights. But, that scene is pretty crude for a soy eating veggie head like me. I would get my head crushed in a vice grip, totally Three Stooges style. But, this poem is funny. I felt bad for a while, but it's a fun thing. Anyone who can bear to hear such rumpous can turn the volume down or hit ALT+CTRL+DELETE and shut down. Navajo poet/writer/journalist Rutherford Ashley reads his poem, "Pissing Trough"."
