Floyd On Noise

Outline: Inspired by donna's 4-word challenge in the Flash Poetry group.
Floyd On Noise

I hoovered very fast
I was on speed.
I talked incessantly
Without the need.
I got the munchies bad
After some weed.
An onion and an after-eight
Indeed
Together.
Then someone passed a Law
Against that stuff
And turned down all the speakers
In a huff.
Took away my stash and
Shaved my beard
And never once had
Stupid morons heard
Pink Floyd
The greatest
Rock Band in the world
Play a chord so soft
It's hardly heard.

Great stuff, Ron. Cool
This is a jaunty poem with a groovy rhyme. It's like hoovering... sorry, vacccuuuming on speed... while listening to A Saucerful of Secrets. Very Happy

Excellent, Ron. Better for a slower, second reading, although I'm sure you never touched the stuff in real life.

Hey, both, thanks Very Happy Laughing

Isn't it great, eh? Sometimes, I can sit for days/weeks/months craving my Muse. It can be a bit depressing, knowing you want to say something but . . . unable to find the words. Sad

Then, as if by Magic someone says, 'pick a word, any word, from these four--or use them all if you're an Adventurer at heart--and write a poem with that word or words in it and you only have fifteen minutes so . . . GO!'

'Bingo!' screams your Muse, gleefully, 'Right, move over, Buster, watch the act!'

I really love being in our Flash Group. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

You see Wilfred Owen and Seigfreid Sassoon in the late night movie on the BBEB again last night with Jonathon Price as the doctor? Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Yes saw it and something else that cant recall as was busy
digging this up. was a good version seen another one that wa as good or may been brookes.

Think most of the good ones come from a muse, thats been perused in those times when the muse has left you. I tend to abuse them more than use them all though ron Wink .

Play a chord so soft, It's hardly heard, post barret days
i take it, makes you wonder what the muse was for "several small picts grooving.. Arnold lanes hobby far to easy Wink ,

The link to your old one, Log . . . wow, you pull no punches, mate, and any poet who does is no poet. Wink

Want to polish it through PM and then if the answer is 'yes' I'll delete this sentence? Wink

I tend to abuse them more than use them all though ron
why should it be restricted to me abusing them thats what they are there for, to make people think and in doing that you end up with a more {(in) (formed)} position Wink
