These Vocal Challenges

A Sonnet On The Current Vocal Challenges

By Mike Singleton 💜 Mikeydred Published 3 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read
The Current Vocal Challenges

I didn't intend to write anything today, so this is my third piece and first poem, taking the current Vocal Challenges as Inspiration.

I included the Peter Gabriel song to give me some perspective

📚🧾🗡️🦉⚔️📝📖

Should I Write A Microfiction

Or Should It Be An Acrostic

Maybe Follow Father's Footprint

But Honestly, I Have Lost It

🗡️🦉⚔️

I Took The Brush For Painted Prose

Became A Scumbag For Past Life

Pitched My Pilot And Now Who Knows

Out Of Those Six I've Now Hit Five

🗡️🦉⚔️

I Find Each Vocal Challenge Fun

I Join The Race But Never Run

Always Take The Wrong Direction

Coz That Way Lies MY Perfection

🗡️🦉⚔️

I Still Wonder What Will Come Next

And Cheer My Friends On Their Success

📚🧾🗡️🦉⚔️📝📖

    All of these challenges and yet you fit it all in one poem. They remind me of my college classes working on the the most currently due project then moving to the next
