<p>This is actually something I&#8217;ve (sort of) done before, but have been tempted to do several times. I&#8217;ve always loved songs like Sonic Youth&#8217;s &#8220;In The Kingdom 19&#8243;  or the Minutemen&#8217;s &#8220;Take 5, D&#8221; &#8211; songs with spoken word over them, or songs with found lyrics that have a weird poetry to them.</p>
<p>So that&#8217;s why I have thought occasionally about making songs from tweets.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s what this is: <a href="http://twitter.com/vomikronnoxis/status/12068252341">http://twitter.com/vomikronnoxis/status/12068252341</a></p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t really as much a found piece of poetry, because I think Rob intended it to be read that way. But that&#8217;s why I liked twitter anyway.</p>
<p>Hopefully I&#8217;ll have more stuff up soon.</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s a song about the concerns of being older and not acting your age. It is actually terrifying to other people, because I can really get along rather well on my own. Realistically speaking I could probably live off of my savings for a while and spend my money filling an entire house with Fanta cans and old newspapers. Who can do that when they&#8217;re 21 years old? Nobody, that&#8217;s who!</p>
<p>Anyway. If anyone knows anything about preamps, let me know and I will complain to you. Otherwise, enjoy the song!</p>
