Shuffle meme
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.
Let's see how bad this is, with the entire library. Lines from an instrumental are noted by ellipses, but i just added lines at the end, going above 20 total for each instrumental i ran across. There are 4 ellipses, so i went to #24 to compenstate. Make sense?
Flowers, smiling through the battlefield!
The fox, is kinda foxy, Mr. Wolf he's the guy
Nerd girl, i don't deserve you
My baby's on the level
...
...
Have you ever seen the face?
Inside i hide until the storm is gone
Link it to the world, link it to yourself
Look, mind state of a gangster from the 40's
Is you am a dog?
Today is not like any other day
Ghostrider, motorcycle hero
I saw the man at J.F.K.
Lisa Ling and Lucy Liu each regard a fine wonder
Maybe i'm the afterglow
...
Waking up without you is all inside my head
...
You can tell from the scars on my arms
All I knew and all I believed are crumbling images
My my stomach hurts again tonight she said
...
Black is the color of my true love's hair
Repress and restrain, steal the pressure and the pain
Oy. Pretty shitty if you ask me.
