bloodshot eyes
I didn’t sleep
a wink last night
I’m just waiting for you

where are you
now that I need you
what a fool I was
cold cold heart

Day 53 of 100 of a curious challenge that combines my love for music and my optimistic thinking that some day I will write yet again. The poem above is a collage of song titles that topped the charts in 1951 when a sci-fi masterpiece The Day When Earth Stood Still was released.

My flaunting goal is to create one “collage poem” every day for 100 consecutive days. Slowly getting there. Feeling empowered. More wholesome. Liberated.
