Music To My Ears

poet Anonymous

Poetry Contest

An audio musical piece

Hello

This here is an audio / video comp. we are looking for submissions for the DU Podcast— specifically musical.

Your entry can be singing, playing music, reading your poetry to music, rap... try something new. Winners will be featured on The Poetcast Project. The entry can be about anything.

Rules

• You must have permission to perform the piece.

• No graphic sex or extreme swearing. The occasional F word is ok, just don’t go mad.

• Music should be original. If you are performing a piece to music, it must be available with a Creative Commons license or with the consent of the creator.

•  A Cappella entries also valid.  

• Written lyrics will not be accepted. The entry should be performed.

• Entries May be used on The Poetcast Project, going out on ITunes so this is fantastic exposure.

• If you need any help with the creation of such a submission, don’t hesitate to PM me.

Best of luck!

One Tweeker Dead

Oxy cotton man that shit is rotten but uh
 Crush em and snort em and all your problems are forgotten oow
20's 40's 80's addictive huh maybe my nose is bleedin and I keep
 Itchin like I got rabies  just let it drain
 Another synthetic pathetic method to submerge my inner pain
 Blame my family friends who else it just depends
 Just want it all to end I need to snort again
 I need some more drugs like all six of them
 I'll take these Vicodins hey you pass the claudipins
 There bangin at the bathroom door but I can't let them in
 Rigamortis pale blue on wet porcelain

No where to even explain I couldn't think to refrain
 My life could be summed up in one word COCAINE
 I lick the end of the straw that I snorted through
 When I'm through I rub my teeth with the residue
 I'm always thinkin about the next line man I know I owe you 3 bills
 Fuck it I'll pay you next time
 I gotta score some more no matter what the cost is
 Man I can't even feel my face my nose is frost bitten
 (I'm high as a kite)
 I'm havin complications
 (I do this every night)
 In self desecration
 (I don't know wrong from right)
 I can't resist temptation
 (Hold on it'll be alright)
 In self annihilation                                  
 Your teeth are grindin hard you cannot catch your breath
 Your eyes are dilated welcome to crystal meth
 Sleep depravation now intertwines with some chemicals
 As a result a twisted realm of scenarios, paranoid
 Hearin police scanners and radios the voices now speak to you in stereo
 Seeing shadows around the corners of your eyeballs
 To smoke the rest and hide in the closet till night fall
 Midnight it's time to make the escape jumped in the ride time to score
 More you can't wait backing out the driveway but didn't look both ways
 Another tweeker dead obituary page

Just want to check, Missy, is there any way of adding an audio to DUP that is not via youtube?  Thanks.  (soundcloud, for example?)  Josh.

Hey Josh. If you want to provide a soundcloud link that’s fine. I can get it from that if needed

Nope, sorry. Copyright wouldn’t allow that.

Thank you Josh.  YouTube has an audio library that is copyright free to use. There is a ton of instrumental of all genre's.
