Eh fuck it, this sonnet is about old records, but also human existence.
Each imperfect moment is needed part of whole,
holistic wabi-sabi like crackles and skips
in ancient 45, accentuating soul
sounds with warmth of natural wear and tear, round trips
holistic wabi-sabi like crackles and skips
in ancient 45, accentuating soul
sounds with warmth of natural wear and tear, round trips
on turning tables at times unstable, slight buzz
of poor grounding creating ever-present hum.
I prefer the realness of blemishes because
perfection is fool's errand, letting self become
of poor grounding creating ever-present hum.
I prefer the realness of blemishes because
perfection is fool's errand, letting self become
sum of path traveled, again like old records, which
passed hands over decades, picking up local dust
and accidental scratches or physical glitch
which can't be fixed, yet learned to live with. I have trust
passed hands over decades, picking up local dust
and accidental scratches or physical glitch
which can't be fixed, yet learned to live with. I have trust
in Universe to keep fool self full of fresh funk,
many folks' most perfect beats are fashioned from junk.
