NAPOWRIMO #20: ALBUM 1

For 2011's National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo), Troy's Work Table is attempting to write thirty poems in thirty days without the help of writing prompts from other websites.

Many of these are still in some sort of draft stage, but that is the nature of the Work Table.

ALBUM 1

I measure in albums,
long-players

while you measure in songs,
mp3s

I treasure the artwork
of twelve-inch sleeves

while you simply
love a song, a single

I will die with remembrances
of music-objects

the music they invoke

while you will die with snippets
of songs

pixellated and partially corrupted
