Blood, sex, weed, magic


A glimpse, magic, sparks glow.
Smiles flash by,
wild laughter, life flows.
Neon lights,
skin, hips sway.
White,
black, smoke.

Guitar strings,
chords, dark streets
Drugs,
speed, weed, sweat, cold.
Up too high,
too low, world spins, round it goes.
Bubbles,
rum, warmth, heaven, gold.

Stars drift apart too far to reach –
Not in dreams though.
Passion,
pain, and tears - I grow.
Sugar,
spice, wine flows.

Hang in there, hang in there.
It’s just a matter of time till you explode.
Blood, sex, leather and birth control.
To be a rock, and not to roll.

Thanks. I know it makes sense. It made a whole bunch of sense to me.

I loved the last 2 lines! They were brilliant!! Alas, I found the rest of it boring.

Lúthien Táralóm said...

Well thanks for liking the last two lines. And otherwise, I really don't care, again.

Subhayu said...

i've incorporated ur verses in the song...it sounds brlliant with the riff.........(which if i may say so is one of the better ones i've come up with)....

Lúthien Táralóm said...

@ Subhayu - Don't I have copyright?
:)
A thanks would be welcome...
;)
I'd like to hear it, could you do it over the phone even if we don't meet?

Subhayu said...

yeah i guess i owe u a thank you...........the thing is this poem of urs is very similar to a song that me and my friends came up with..it's up on my blog actually........i thought you were inspired by that song itself when you wrote this.....so my mistake.....

Lúthien Táralóm said...

@ subhayu - I was just joking. Though it's very different from your song. The quote which inspired you to write is the same. And I took the name from what you call your blog, because the quote wouldn't fit well as a name for this poem.
"Sex, drugs and rock and roll
Speed, weed and birth control"
By the way, why don't you d/l yahoo or msn? We could talk then?

Subhayu said...

Lúthien Táralóm said...

Excellent. Glad you got msn at least. Saptarshi will be happy as well. I've added you already.
