Hey y’all! So to those of you in my class: I changed my project, but to the lovely people in Block 1 please allow me to explain my idea. So my thought is to show the glorious connection between language and music, and the wonder I find it to be. Basically I’m taking a song and writing something just based on what I hear, not the lyrics but the music itself. Then I’ll take another song and do the same thing, etc. Umm… what else? I’m a synesthete and I see and feel color when I hear music ([] sound -> color synesthesia). Being like that brings a whole new sensation to music and makes interesting language easy to bust out, so I’m working with that. “Music is Poetry and Poetry is Music” is what I’m titling this project, and my hope is to show that music is a beautiful organic experience that makes words flow from within, and that the poetry that is spawned by the music is melodic and imitated music in its rawest form. SOO this is the general idea, mehhh I hope you enjoy when I start to post real things haha :) muchas gracias!

 Just as a comparison, here's a poem written with the silence of my head. So a stream of consciousness like the others will be, but without music to provoke it. True Love

And now here's a plethora! Try to listen to the song at the same time to get the whole idea.
