Experimenting tonight since today was a heavy day. I'm going to write a poem using random words and phrases from music I'm listening to tonight. This technique is apparently called found poetry. Just call me Lady Dada.
Nothing heavy allowed, of course, because I don't feel like it. Only songs that encourage movement and pleasant feelings. I'll try not to violate anyone's copyright --in fact, I'll list the songs and encourage you to seek out the originals from the artists! Here we go ...
I gotta live it down.
It bears repeating --
Lots of work to be done.
I get my kicks
(Shake it shake it)
Standing up against the wall.
Quelle vibration!
All I know,
I was hit by something last night --
So indelicate.
(Poor little greenie,
Take me by the hand.)
Out of control!
I don't mind 'cause I'm that kind of
Leute.
