Working with Lyrical Grammar Fuel: 1980s Harder Rock (Part 2)

 

Freewriting with the random four words for rock poetry.

The goal of this day is just to write whatever first comes to mind for about 10 minutes. Everything will revolve around the random words or words that rhyme.

Freewriting without stopping.

You sent me a card each year. When I play my cards, I win. Shuffling cards is a game of chance. In my hand a deck of cards for the game. My ace card is ready, I'm ready to play.

What's left to do? I left it all behind. It's all left unsaid. Left that town far behind. Left you in my dust. Left with nothing but the cards that I've been delt.

The past moments—past times. The past good times and rides. In a past life I've flied. It's past time for a change.

Never a moment to spare. Never low, never there. We can never reach the other side of the world. We never left our cards from our past life.

Ever present, never there. However, you dare to share. Whenever we reach for that moment, a moment to care.

Whoever left a heart once blind, past times unaware.

In one regard, the past is the future, never left answered prayer.

Guard the chance of one moment.

Despised theft, not a chance, never trustin' a troll.

Blast that one on his ass. Never good never real.

Outlast the stealer of souls—an outcast.

Blew it all very fast, on the last one to stare.

The silence raises the night from the first to the last.




That's enough for this day's exercise. In the next one, I might try look over this exercise and pick out whatever might be interesting.
