Put your MP3 player thingy on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results.
Dark shadows from above
I'm selling heavenly sketches
Pearls and swine, bereft of me
Throw your dollar bills
Nothing ever stops all these thoughts
Crawl in awful stealth to me
Decisions made from desperation
You are a wandering shining star
The landlord's here to visit
The mongrel cat came home
Life is a waterfall
Here comes the sun king
Why can't i hear you breathe?
Our abode 'mongst the stars is waiting,
I want you to know
I pace, alone
Leave your mark under my skin
What ravages of spirit conjured this temptuous rage?
We are riding for the battle field in force tonight
Red sun rising
Shockingly coherent! And unsurprisingly morbid. The third stanza is just WEIRD, though.
I did have to skip a bunch of instrumental tracks and stuff that wasn't in English (which is a fair chunk of what I listen to).
Bonus points if you can name any of the songs! :)
