Lava Lamp

It stands in repose,

glowing serenely

and dominating my bureau,

majestically nonconforming with its shiny metal base.

The lava looks more like a camel,

an irritated, green and slimy one,

sucking on its saliva so it can spit in your eye,

for disturbing its nap in the sun.

While I look at it and mutter, “I’m such a dork.”

the lump of lava does not move,

cold and congealed at the bottom

from the lamp being turned off all night.

The bulb burns patiently on,

lighting up the underside of that strange camel,

and wondering why the hell

is it under that stupid gob of goop?

I sit here and stare,

back and forth ‘tween laptop and lamp,

and wonder when that eerie green camel of snot

will stop glaring at me,

its mouth full of nasty lava-camel saliva.

I never write poems. Well, okay, occasionally  I do. But not often. Sorry for making your eyes burn and brains melt because I stink a writing poems. Inspiration + boredom = dumb poetry about my lava lamp. LOL IM A DORK. And try to ignore the wonky formatting. LJ HATES CUT AND PASTE TEXT FROM MS WORD.

I MISSED THOMAS BANGALTER'S AND GUY-MANUEL DE HOMEM-CHRISTO'S BIRTHDAYS. They're the geniuses behind my favorite band/group OF ALL TIME, Daft Punk.
I'M SO SORRY I MISSED YOUR BIRTHDAYS. I LOVE YOU BOTH. You guys are amazing and are the most talented and creative artists I know of. Whenever I get writer's block or just feel uninspired, I can just pull out my iPod and listen to one of your albums and go, "That never stopped Daft Punk," and then sure enough I'm back to writing again. This might sound creepy, but if I was to grow up to be like anybody in the entire world, it would be Thomas and Guy. I don't quite know how that works, growing up to be like two different people, but I'll just say a cross of both of their good traits, haha. Thank you both so much for daring to share your ideas, visions, music, and sheer talent and creativity with the world. I am just one of your many fans that is eternally grateful for being shown the world's wonders through an entirely different and new light. If I could only dedicate my writing to two people, I would dedicate it to Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, my greatest, if unwitting, mentors that I have ever known. I cannot thank you enough for everything you have done and shared. Keep up the amazing work, and I look forward to your next album immensely!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY THOMAS AND GUY!


I hope you both had awesome birthdays!
