Boredom late at night
I've done this before, I know. I took the song titles from certain artists and made a poem for each. I did several tonight. I was on a roll! The words in bold are the song titles.
"The intro to perpetual chaos
arrives in different
colours of rain.
The interceptor of entropy
enters the arena. He looks
homeward to the endless skies
and chrome strata of lightwaves
forming in the sunset, melting
away into the steel raindrops."
^^Artist: VNV Nation
Album: Form+Matter
"It's not that simple
to catch without arms
the planting seeds of
spitshine when you're
hungover on a Tuesday."
^^Artist: Dredg
Album: Catch without Arms
"Just let go of your denial cloud;
there is everything to gain,
everything to be happy for
if we don't get confused
whenever we get a hard
kick in the teeth.
We will never win if all we are
are a bunch of cowards."
^^Artist: Fischerspooner
Album: Odysessy
"Why do you love me?
Why do you bleed like me?
When I've accused you of being
a bad boyfriend with a metal heart.
I've hit the problem right between the eyes,
and it's all over but the crying.
Please, why don't you come over
and make this, once again, a happy home."
^^Artist: Garbage
Album: Bleed Like Me
"With this last razorblade kiss,
join me in death,*
right here in my arms.*
Bury me deep inside your heart*
as we seek heaven tonight.
Just one last time...
Give me your poison, girl."
^^Artist: H.I.M.
Album: Razorblade Romance
*each line is a separate song title
"Sometimes...
I think the world is mine,
but I say to myself,
'Silly, that's just the opium talking,
Jackie's delirium.'
Day after day, I partake in others' delight
for the sad song the swallow sings."
^^Artist: Hooverphonic
Album: Jackie Cane
"The veins of glass are falling again,
falling into a circle of cold reverie
of my long-gone stately lover."
^^Artist: Lacuna Coil
Album: In a Reverie
"Often, we're so far away
from someone else's arms
when we need to breakdown
and feel the painless ocean
of the everglow wash over us."
^^Artist: Mae
Album: The Everglow
"Into the ether, Cassandra!
See how love and hatred
have consumed the citadel
like a wicked flame.
After all, the sentiment
inside it was untrue.
It was waiting to leave,
waiting for me to release it."
^^Artist: The Cruxshadows
Album: Ethernaut
Aaaand, that's it. Phew, time for bed.
