*Note: This form is called “found” and I’ve taken snippets from several of my favorite songs to create this particular poem.
Heart
is a hollow muscular organ
influenced by hard rock and heavy metal
pain
shortness of breath
You know something here just ain’t right
what about love?
Baby, don’t hurt me
don’t hurt me no more
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
but the scar, that scar remains
there’s nothing I can do
Total eclipse of the heart
Baby, I won’t shed a tear for you
I was such a fool
boy, I gave you all my heart and all you do is tear it up
We could have had it all,
but
this hollow heart of mine
is ringing out the song of hope
for I have
the heart of a fighter
I will survive
The beautiful image of the heart and the words “hollow . . .song of hope . . .fighter . . .survive” all go together.

It was quite fun! This one allowed me to revisit many of my fave 80s songs (yeah, I’m getting old! 😉 ).

The 80’s is exactly where I would travel for some of my favorite songs too…..I think they are referred to as classics now….gasp….

I remember listening to the classics when I was a girl but those were my parents’ music. Oh my how the wheels of time have turned…
