A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Victims all

We saw you live again last night
We were at the show
Watching your glory in blazing light
From the very first row

You've aged with grace, no longer boys
Your sound filled with flare
Playing to a hall of noise
Showing us all how much you care

Thank you.

I'm a Victim

I want you, can't you see
I'm not rid of you, I'm not yet free
I saw your face and knew inside
That those smoldering embers I still must hide
A desert voice of pain and rust
Flowing through the brittle dust
An ache made real despite the glare
A thoughtless whisper that I wouldn't dare
I'll see you soon in your electric glow
I'll be there swooning from the front row
A sweaty reminder of youth that's lost
But I still will fight despite the cost
For as your words fill my soul
I know for that night I'll be made whole

Centre Stage

I'm counting down the days
Until our spirits collide
Through a crowded space
With no place to hide

A throng of worshipers
Come to raise the roof
Listening to your voice
No greater spiritual proof

Waiting Room

Sitting before the door
Just waiting to get in
Another hoop to jump
Let's hope that we win!

Black Keys

A sinister kid rocked the stage
A booming drum let loose the rage
Ten thousand fans all joined in
Creating a heavy, harmonious din
The base line says black keys are right
And we bathed in an everlasting light
