Music poem meme time. Why is it that every time one of these comes up, I really should be studying or doing something more productive? Gah. Anyway:

lololol. Evident Utensil. And the last line. Amazing. So obviously I had to do this, too.

Tiny Cities Made of Ashes

kate, it's your ride
is it enough to have some love
you are a waterfall waiting inside a well
chew me up and spit me out

breakneck speed, tying up your hands
too young, too young, too young, too young
soft sheets. what's this about?
i listened in, yes I'm guilty of this

open your eyes, can you see me
cheer up, lady, I'm really into it
cards and quarters, means to ends
you can feel the pounding

walking down dayglow vista road
tell me where you've seen my life
a cripple walks amongst you
can we walk in hope into another new year

that's why I copy and paste
one mistake in a subtle way
call it forgiveness
her green plastic watering can

... I fail at poetry, but I'm kind of in love with the last stanza.

These are so much better than the crap they make us read in English classes. SO MUCH.

Since I can't sleep anyway.

Haunting Me
I'm becoming less defined as days go by.
I want him to know.
The moon was singing the blues
To our crazy fans.

Freezin', mumblemumblemumblemumble rests his head on a pillow made of concrete again
On the way.
Use me as much as you can.
Boy, you're gonna carry that weight.

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene.
Next time out to sea, bring enough soil to bury me.
I wish I was king of the world.
I am the last person you can call.

Hey, I'm your life.
You and me, meant to be.
Down on my knees, I look up at the sky.
Hello, is there anybody in there?

I'm just a vision on your TV screen.
Can't take it out, forever your name.
I am becalmed.
Creamsicle sky while the sun sets in the west.

That turned out remarkably well.
