Musical Found Poem.

A musical meme courtesy of lordameth.

Put your media 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. (Note: as a courtesy to my non-Japanese-speaking friends, I'm only including English-language songs for this.)


It Was Only Yesterday
Sunshine takes me to place where I'm living free
in the lush Virginia hills; he kept her as long as he could.

I let you put it in my mouth.
I won't let you down; I will not give you up.
If your body's feeling bad
I believe in you and me, and I'm coming to find you.

I want to live where soul meets body,
mother, mother...
a new royal family, a wild nobility, we are family.

I still recall the taste of your tears;
there's no one here today 'cause someone took the light away.
Dial up my number.

She shines in a world full of ugliness--
like a feeling that I'm down: down inside my heart.
Here's my love; step inside.
This place is a prison.

Silhouettes and shadows watch the revolution.
Am I still tough enough?

Sometimes there's nothing to feel;
she's mostly gone...
