check out "my longer poems" feed, please ^^
I didn't think it'd still be Adrian Younge this year... especially as of late I'm obsessed with Yazmin Lacey.
I listened to Haute & Freddy songs a lot, but since they only have 6 songs, they're not even in my top 5 artists.

You said
We should dress
#chic for the party
Sleek, modern, minimalist
You said
So I came up
Hair done
Makeup ready
Shoes on
Naked as
A hairless cat
I said
It was antique chic
And asked
If it matched
Your suit okay
Laughter bubbled
Out of you
Like a fountain
For the rest
Of the night
So I used to have this guilty pleasure called Eurovision. It became more guilty than pleasure in the last few years. And as of today it brings me no pleasure at all so I'm not going to follow it anymore. Cheers, EBU for ruining the competition for people with morals. +

I'm 70 years of #age
I can't hide.
I was slightly irked.
But I'll choose
to treat it as a perk.
The robots don't yet know
how I work!

But stranger,
I'd venture,
to say this feels like
surrender
as we wave goodbyes
and avert our eyes
I wish
I wish
we weren't
quite this busy
I wish
these moments
came by easy
so as trains depart
it's with broken heart
that I miss...
I just miss...
Well met stranger
It's strange eh?
feels like I've known you
for ages
the speakers boom
train's coming soon
& I wish
I wish
we'd remain
in this metro station
I wish
we'd prolong
this conversation
but we all know our times
our routes our destinations
have no time to exchange
farewells
But stranger,

Every true musician,
sweet cherub babe
with a tiny lute
stringing along notes...
Now, ain't that cute?

bout one who said
chivalry is dead.
Was it really
that thunderous
instantaneous
dread?
that knight #chivalrous
guiltless took to guillotine
lost his head?
or perhaps
chivalry was
figment?
and only now we notice
tis a beastly hand
that fed
us stories
of gallant men
who fought & bled

crying over glass of wine,
stained the carpet,
cut my feet.
I was told to relax.
did and now regretting it.
so thirsty, headache nursing
hear the guests sing
glass keeps
breaking in my hands
really hoping this hell ends

well-planned arson,
the spark took its time.
It would be wrong
to say it started
here, now
lit in a second
or even with the thought
two days prior.
No, it started
decades earlier,
small child smiled
looking at the fire.

As the cat waddled by
glint of light caught its eye
and it thought this, I'm certain,
something hides in the curtain,
so it pounced on the fabric with claws.

As a cloud you wandered lone?
In that case, I'd hope
the sky saved room for one more
I want to join you in your
'emotion recollected in tranquility'
I don't believe this means
solitude's a necessity
so if your poem I may recite,
take me with, let's depart.

Steady me
as I fall
at mercy
of your hands
to think
you're no god
but I'm remade
speechless
rendered
some unholy
mess

I think we'll keep polluting
and I'd think maybe until
something lays waste
to our wasteful ways,
but I fear what mess
we'll make before
that something comes
or what if it's all up to us.

To think
our love
would wilt
I thought
we were
too wild
Brimming
with life
and hope
Not speaking
'bout it now

I find myself
changed
by the
view,
didn't
think it'd
be this clear

'what's there to write about?'
so now I'll ask back
'how's that #relevant?'
If I'm needing of theme
it'll come in a dream,
but the main thing I lack
is the self-esteem
to #gaslight myself
to think I'm good enough
to write even when
the words are sounding rough.
