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.

Well, It Rains and It Pours When You're Out On Your Own

It's the coming before the storm
Watch your mouth
Tonight, I find out what you're all about
Like walking into a dream

Shake! Are you even here?
We watch the season pull up its own stage
Death hands clutch my arm
She started dancing the second that she heard the music play

I've got my sights set on you, and I'm ready to aim
You're throwing everything you have at me, cheap shots, low blows, will you ever let it go?
Innocence, sunk the glow and drowned in covers, send for all your absent lovers' things
I wasn't enough for you to abandon everything

Well I thought that we could sit around and talk for hours about the things I couldn't say to you
You believe everything your music tells you
I got these memories, they're all of you and me
Perfect girl, wrong place, what can you do to fix the situation?

Should I write myself out of the history books?
Today I found a baby's glove
I grew up on the run
Midnight rush with a pen in my hand
