I've probably been sitting here for about 10 minutes thinking about what to write for open discussion. So I started to go through my comments and Stephanie suggested that I put up some poetry. And I noticed that Chad put up some of his lyrics so I've decided to give him some moral support.
I figured I'd put one of my more odd pieces up. I ususally don't write in this style but I really like how this one turned out.
Burning inside
desire lurking
pain subsides
Wisdom bestowed
ignorance thwarted
Revolution begins
Calm replaces hysteria
riots soon dissipate
anger fades
ecstasy replaced
Senses heightened
mind drifts and melts
Losing faith
gaining perspective
knowledge grows
power enhanced
weakness shot down
Bullets of love
floral memories
Joining the birds
the sky a safe haven
virtue, trust, grace
Soaring.

Jordan, You have some powerful (and sensuous) imagery in your lyrics. I would love to hear them set to music.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your posting...now for full credit, you still need to do your opinion blog. I don't want to get cheated out of your ideas. Maybe you could take off an a theme touched upon in your lyrics?
Ooooh. That's really cool! I love how you worded it and the metering totally put it all together. Amazing job! =]
