#overlap: poetry

[tayfabe75]

Stevie: I wanna say one thing, because I have it here and I want to get it out of the way, I don't want to forget to do it before we hang up. I would've thought that you would've written more like me, and now I don't know if you or George wrote this part, but I'm just gonna read you something that makes me think that you would take your formal poems. But also there's a line in this that's one of the reasons that I totally fell in love with your lyrics, because… Anyway, I'm just gonna read this to you, okay? So it says, ​"She's inducing sleep to avoid pain/​And I think she's got a gun /​Divinely decreed and custom made /​She calls on the phone like the old days, expecting the world /​Don't fall in love with the moment and think you're in love with the girl". I think that ​"Don't fall in love with the moment and think you're in love with the girl," first of all, that's just like my life, right? Matty: Yeah, right? Stevie: That made me… The way that these words are, I would think that you actually started with words and that you didn't start with music. Between you and George, and I don't know where you begin and he ends because you know, I understand that symbiotic thing that you guys have. Unless you tell them, nobody's ever gonna know, but the fact is that your lyrics are – and I don't even wanna say lyrics, your poetry is like, so good and so seductive and so intriguing. I mean there's all kinds of great sexy words I could use, but it's like… I just love it.

I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately... I wanted to live deep and suck all the marrow out of life! To put to rout.. all that was not life, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. - Henry David Thoreau

#this is so painful…. borderline homophobic #idk if theres a big overlap of these fandoms cuz they are WILDLY different from each other #one uses poetry as a metaphor for love and the other uses cannibalism lmao #but i thought of the snow scene first and then i couldnt get it outta my head #my gifs #yellowjackets #dead poets society #dps fandom #jackieshauna #anderperry #tusersimone #yellowjacketscentral #tvedit #filmedit #tvandfilm

omg just rediscovered some of my old concept tags... hashtag astriferous. hashtag daughters of blood and starlight. hashtag you wake with iron in your mouth. girl what does that mean

#the last one has 2 posts in it neither of them containing that phrase #the first two have an 80% overlap #i mean i havent grown up that much i still use concept tags from poetry but its funny to look back #mp3

"Just One of Those Things" - lyrics to a jazz standard by American songwriter Cole Porter (1891–1964), famously performed by artists such as Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Blossom Dearie, et cetera.

#influences #i think of cole porter as one of the best jazz poets. sorry but his lyrics are so perfectly metrical it drives me CRAZY #i purposefully broke up every line where it became catalectic bc emphasizing those breaks is. so fun #cole porter #jazz #song lyrics #poetry #twentieth century #and since this is queued for new year's eve... i hope you're all out there having your just-one-of-those-things tonight #have fun go crazy get wild it's just one of those things #fun fact this is my first time putting straight-up song lyrics in my influences tag but it's kinda long overdue #but im going to be very select when i do post song lyrics on this blog. they cant just be song lyrics i like #but song lyrics i enjoy in the same way i enjoy poetry #this may be (and is) a very unpopular opinion but i do not think songwriting has very much in common w writing poetry #by necessity that is. and that is bc ive never been able to write songs #for some of us they can be very very very different skills #the modern arts of music and poetry are very diverged from each other in terms of what it takes to write a good song or a good poem #they are NOT as overlapped as some ppl try to make it seem sometimes #it's not like drawing versus painting anymore it's more like drawing versus sculpting #ps my favorite version of this song is blossom dearie's

Rainbow.

The rainbow is 

God’s promise

That we will not be destroyed

No wave of terror

Swallowing all of us before our very eyes.

.

I think of this,

God's promise

In the wake of another hateful act

My beloved and I holding each other tightly

Saying I Love You I Love You I Love You

God Help Us God Help Us

Repetition gets Your attention

At least so my study Bible says

.

I look for

God's Promise

In the spray of the road

In windows

On cars and clothes

And the sky

To see the bow hung up

To see signs of safety

.

We hang flags and

God's promise

At every door post

On our bodies

Like the blood of the Lamb

Angel, Pass over us

Beloved

There is sanctuary here

.

I am holding to

God's Promise

Gripping at the colors that symbolize

The wholeness of me 

And I plead:

Hear Your grieving children, God

Do not destroy us

Do not let us be destroyed

Amen, Amen, Amen.

sorry to ffxivlovepost always anyway Man the way the devs & game did so good in making an mc that is Basically a blank-slate for the players, and there's so many opportunities to make your oc However you like but. the game itself adds so much story and character to that blank-slate guy. amazing

"The poetry aspect is the fact that the music does come first, but it's about, I suppose, that I write what I see and I write what I hear a lot. So I tend to be somewhere and voyeuristically overhear something and I'll write it down. I write down a lot of concepts, I write down a lot of stuff that doesn't rhyme. The biggest moment that I've had with that is, we have this song called Love It If We Made It, which has kind of become I suppose our biggest song, it's our big kind of political moment. It talks about everything that was kind of messed up in the world from 2018 onwards. There's kind of references to this and references to Trump. I remember having this moment in the song where the lyrics, the melody had to go bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah-bah, 1 – 2‑3 – 4‑5 – 6‑7, and I needed seven syllables. So I was thinking, what are these powerful syllables? What are seven syllables that really reach the time? And then I found Donald Trump's quote of, ​'I moved on her like a bitch.' And I just screamed, I moved on her like a bitch! And that is the synthesis that I'm always searching, finding… It's like painting by numbers but not making it rudimentary, do you know what I mean? I need to let the music inspire the poetry and then make musical poetry around it. That's kind of what I do."

IAMUURME

The walls are closing in upon my expectations

like fogbanks assaulting the windows, dripping

their message down the panes in streaks of wet

delineation, erasing the lines between inside and

out, day and night, you and I and all the minutes

spent within the space of ourselves overlapping

tales of entombed

"Deep in the caves there's a lady stone-cold Who tells only secrets and stories untold And if you despair, listen if you dare To tales of watchers, of fools and gold." - The Lady's Lullaby

some are brave enough to heed the age-old lullaby. they descend into the deep and the dark, to where only a silent silver statue awaits them. no matter where they delve, they will find her eventually. and once they do, nothing will ever be quite the same.

she pulls them into her endless tales of lives long-gone. dream with me, she says without saying. dream of starry eyes, of the blood-red life, of a rift that will only spell destruction.

take her hand, she says. sit and listen. and now you have no choice but to hear, and to join her dreams until your lives run out. she cares for you. she is not lying.

and when that time comes, she will take your hand one more time, and she will guide you through where no light ever reaches. but when she returns, well...

your life is only ever one more story to tell.

#tales of the entombed #hermitcraft #trafficblr #watchers #apricity au isn't abandoned #this is a different project #this isn't an au #so it can overlap with other aus i've made #into my world of poetry

Conversations with god

I am ten years old

my parents left me home alone

only for a short while but still

alone in a not-quite-home of a house

I go into their bedroom

it was always off limits

I crawl into their bed and feel so so small

insignificant

I kneel at the end of their bed

my hands clasp in a desperate prayer

sobbing begging to be stricken down

pleading to anyone who heard

my prayer unanswered I curl into a ball

right onto the slick wooden floor

and cry for my mommy

my parents found me sitting on the couch

right where they left me

as always the well behaved easy kid

knowing their love was conditional

I am twelve years old

I sneak out of bed at four am

I go to the bathroom, close the door behind me

hunch over the sink

why am I like this?

I stare in the mirror

as tears streak down my face

why can't I change no matter how hard I try

please

I scream out

please fix me

I beg to anyone who will listen

please make me whole make me right again

there is no answer

just my own face that I barely recognize

staring blankly back at me

I go back to bed

I woke up the next morning wondering why I did

I am fourteen years old

I didn't think to look how much it would take

I simply take as many as I can

I'm laying on my bedroom floor

the carpet scratches my face painfully

but I find I can't move more than a finger twitch

my vision starts to blacken like curtains closing

the music I put on goes in and out

I send my last thoughts to the universe

to anyone who will listen

please let me pass peacefully

into whatever may be next

I woke up two days later

still on my bedroom floor

I went downstairs and drank water

more parched than I had ever been

my mother laughed when she saw me

said I looked like shit

and she was glad I wasn't dead up there

what an inconvenience that would be

I am sixteen years old

I stay inside all day for months

everyone does it's a pandemic

I don't talk to my friends

I know they all think I'm annoying

they're happier without me

no one tried to reach out

no one asked me how I am

my teachers don't notice I sleep through class

and stay up all night long

one night I'm alone- always a dangerous thing

I think that tonight is my last night

I cook a nice dinner and watch my favorite show

I take a shower and a bubble bath

I make my bed, to finally lie down and rest

I make sure my rat is fed, extra food too

in case it takes long for them to notice

I give him treats and pets, I will miss him greatly

I write my note and take far more than last time

I thought I learned my lesson

I tuck myself into bed one final time

it's more violent this time

I feel like I'm floating and drowning and burning

all at once

I have no final thoughts this time

I woke up the next day

vomit already crusting on my blankets

"thank god you were on your side"

is all that mother said to me

when she caught me cleaning up

"thank god" I scoffed

as if that prick had helped before

as if any god would ever listen to me

I am eighteen years old

I step into a church for the first time

in what feels like lifetimes

for a school project on new experiences

I sit with an old friend in a pew towards the back

and try to feel the embrace of god

or anything really

the most I felt was mild discomfort

and a nosebleed in the bathroom

some might say that's an omen

that I'm of the devil

that there's something unholy in me

that needs to be purged or cleansed

maybe they're right

but I decided to stop praying that day

no more free for all calls to the universe

I was tired of the crippling loneliness

that came with unanswered calls

if no one would pick up I had to rely on myself

the only one talking back to me

in these conversations with god

God's Boring-est capitalist dystopia

vs

Humanity's unabashed capacity to end up with a life story worth listening to

#meme #but also kinda poetry and thoughts and stuff #i just like words #and the venn diagram of poetry and memes is actually a pretty big overlap when it comes to clever use of words #anyways

[jaina-chaosweaver-of-fate]

Sometimes I play with the young, And sometimes I grant rest to the old, But sometimes it's the other way around, And I cry tears in the arms of my lover cold.

#daily poetry challenge #day 749 #More thoughts about the Spriggan SI. #Also just the dark thoughts of what someone who is set up like that will have to do. #She's a psychopomp and a guardian of children. #Sometimes that overlaps in the worst possible way.

#poetry that makes me go (old computer dial up noises and cartoon hit with a frying pan animation) #also poetry that makes me think of supernatural. theres a lot of overlap
