Sweet Sound Of 80s Rock
Let me rev-up my hungry heart
and turn on 80s Rock for a start.
It is time to dance with the beat
and go with the flow, oh so sweet!
I kiss life with a passion
hearing music from the Rocking Eighties
as I live to feel my reaction
of sensations from head to toe that agrees.
Let me hear the singer's voice
and all their passionate and truthful words
to show why I chose 80s Rock to rejoice
as I fly high in emotional release without words.
I will be upbeat to the 80s Rock of boldness
and know how much I can be so relentless
when I become the man so fearless
when others watch me get high regardless
if they think I have gone senseless!

Poetry is the way no-talent, semi-literate cretins try to make us suffer as much as they do. OK, that might be a bit too negative. Only most poetry is that. Then there's Shelley. Word music. Architecture with thought instead of stone.
