Kicking off a fun association game week

[alee_grrl]

I chose a snippet from one of my favorite songs, Roll Away Your Stone by Mumford and Sons.


It seems that all my bridges have been burned
But you say, "That's exactly how this grace thing works"
It's not the long walk home that will change this heart
But the welcome I receive with every start

Full lyrics here.
Listen to the song here.

Oh, these snippets remind me strongly of a poem about 'Night Mares' I wrote ~10 years ago. Unfortunately that predates when I started keeping backups of my poems online & the magazine it was published in is back in storage at my parents' house. Bother.

Free association lyrical:

- Simon & Garfunkel's song "Hello Darkness My Old Friend"

Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain,
Still remains, within the sound of silence
