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

1:Running for her life

For the pain and the sorrow
Five AM Friday morning
On behalf of her love
And now they're trying to my life away

Boys and girls of every age
I've had my share of one night stands
I was a teenage cave woman
Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girl

I am so all American, I'll sell you suicide
Oh you gonna take me home tonight
See my true reflection
Enchantress came to me

Fireflies are flying higher
Young men, there's no need to feel down
I'd like to wake alone
Where do you go?

Where is the one that I love most of all?
The sun rises above them as they make their way
If you want to know how to fly high then go now.
I want to fly into your sun

Sure that star can twinkle.

2. I come down like a hurricane

Once there came a storm in the form of a girl
Sunlight won’t lie to your pale face in spring
Summer goes, winter comes, leaves fall on frozen ground
I am a crooked man and I've walked a crooked mile
They say it fades if you let it

World was on fire and no one could save me but you
I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kind
Waiting for an invitation to arrive
What's this? What's this? There's colour everywhere.
I am Murray, the mighty demonic skull!

Big stripey lie coming up like a wavy line
Oh girl we are the same, we are young
Not the red baron, not Charlie Brown
Cast the calming apple
You are the original template

Oh Lordy Lordy, oh Lordy Lordy
Farewell goodnight last one out turn out the lights
Come to me, run to me, do and be done with me
You think that I go home at night
The culprit, you act before thinking

You reap what you sow.

3. Somewhere in the City

Come down slowly, I'm waiting by your side
You telling lies think I can't see
I start off in the north

When my baby came around
This is where the party ends
Love is a flame that can't be tamed

The drugs they say
The way in life
When will you realise you're already there?

Who do you want to be today?
Through the windswept costal dreams
I think it's perfectly clear

Another rollercoast ride
Been over, been over this before
I'll tell you once, won't tell you twice

Vacate is the word
Blood upon the skies
I've heard your song

Everday I write the list
When it finally comes to destroy the earth
Could be honeycomb.
