Playlist

A ton of songs -

Over fifty -

I love them all,

But fade so quickly.

My interest dies

By the tenth repetition,

And so I move on

To a cooler mission.

This beat, this soundtrack

On a loop.

This singer, songwriter

Musical group.

My obsessions may be short

But they're intense and they burn;

My playlist of celeb crushes,

Everyone takes a turn.

First AJR,

And then Maroon 5.

So many others

After my love for them dies.

I listen on repeat

Completely mesmerized

By this sound and this rhythm,

But no new surprises.

Next I move on

And start to explore -

How much do I love this artist,

Do I want to hear more?

It's definitely a roller coaster

My constantly-shifting taste in music

But they're my absolute favorite

That is, until I lose it.

  • Festival

    Long day

    past where morning sun shines and into the dark huskiness of night

    fluorescent lights beating down 

    then flickering off

    a fanfare

    a reflection

    a redemption

  • Instincts

    Some things are just instinct

    like when I just ran to you

    as soon as I saw you

    and hugged you for -

    oh yeah -

    the first time

    very very platonic of course

    you're my big brother.

  • Flying solo

    Your solo is like sun shining through the clouds in my heart

    it's like a platonic ballad

    it's like you are playing

    through first loves

    and forbidden loves

    and grass in the summer

    and crunchy chips
