Put your MP3 player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first is the title.

Sheets of Empty Canvas

Oh Life, its bigger
Look in my eyes, what do you see?
Ever since I was a young boy Ive played the silver ball
I don't mind stealing bread from the mouths of decadence
Imagine there's no heaven

My Christmas I don't want to fight tonite with you
Its been seven hours and fifteen days
Look at these people amazing how sheep will show up to the slaughter
I am a man of constant sorrow
When I find myself in times of trouble

I saw her today at the reception
He could’ve tuned in, tuned in but he tuned out
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
I met him in a swamp down in degoba

When I walk beside her
Looking out the door
I am just a poor boy and my story's seldom told
We skipped the light fandango turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
Hey where did we go?
