Challenge
Lyrically yours
You need to be listening to music to do this challenge. I mean, I guess if you have music running through your head, maybe that counts? But my idea was to take a line from the song to which you are listening, and write using it as inspiration, then add another line if it catches your attention, until you feel you are done writing, or until the music ends (I hope the music never ends, but your piece will have to I suppose). Credit the song(s) and artist(s) in your comments and tag me so I don't miss it.
The World’s Best Kisser
Since I met her
I’m a metronome:
Ticking heart
keeping time with her
tickling gaze.
Chasing a secret
so salacious
yet only existing
between the pages.
She puts her crooked fingers
in my mouth
to catch me
when the current
drags me out.
An uncontrollable spur
tasting passion
trading words
in an empty room with her
before inevitably
Our lips
become predictable
and the pearl
drops from our clammy hands:
Relationship now visible.
