Readers of mine may have noticed that lately I have been writing lots of poems based on songs.
I would just like to say that just because I write poems based on deep emotional love songs it doesn't mean I'm in a deep or emotional or loved up mood or anything, or that I'm not over my ex (I am. Seriously.) It's just that sometimes I hear a song and I think 'That would make such a cool poem,' or 'I totally know where she's coming from,' or 'OMG she's singing about my douchebag ex/the bully of the tenth grade!'
Stuff like that.

3. It's a great reason to show so many videos (and fulfils a Media Studies requirement or two).
And time to share my Taylor Swift surprise.
On Sunday I read that "in the crowd" was based on Kanye West.
Lots of compassion and decency there.
Did you mean Innocent? That song was about Kanye West: It's okay, life is a tough crowd/32 and still growing up now/Who you are is not what you've been/You're still an innocent.
ReplyDeleteDifferent message to my poem, obviously.
