I might do something more with this later, but I think this could be something really good if I played with it more. Here is the first draft of the Singdledom EP. Most of the poems that go up here are before any revisions made by me, and usually I won't touch em again. But there have been a few poems I'll go back and endlessly rework, this may be one of them.
Soundtrack to
Singledom
Fizzy popping of Dr.
Pepper
crackling over icy rocks in a frosty mug.
Far too big to drink in one sitting.
crackling over icy rocks in a frosty mug.
Far too big to drink in one sitting.
Rain drops hitting
pop cans
that were casually thrown away,
a symphony of used and empty souls.
that were casually thrown away,
a symphony of used and empty souls.
The flapping of slick
skin and palm,
quickly coming to a moaning finish.
quickly coming to a moaning finish.
The continuous
ringing of the doorbell
by pizza delivery drivers doing a duet
performance over several nights.

The rhythmical beats
of a typing keyboard

Fuel for future song lyrics.
