Prince songs as Poems.. .
Some Prince songs are so ridiculously beautiful/clever that they sound as good when read out as a Poem.. My favourite is.. Loving U in silence, knowing that it's right Under your gaze I ponder this love 2night Unbothered by the chaos swirling 'round outside In your arms is where I want 2 live and die Someplace where your face is all that I see Where the love we make intoxicates intensively In a mirror where your sweet reflection used 2 be There is hope, there is joy, my soul sanctuary My soul sanctuary Loving U in silence, neverending kiss Under your gaze I can peacefully exist Sanctuary, baby, nothing compares 2 this In my darkest hour U can be my bliss (Bliss) All of me I give 2 thee down at your feet The reassurance in your rhythm speaks 2 me Over and over your screams are like a prayer In the dark, U are there (U are there), my soul sanctuary Ooh, my soul sanctuary Loving U in passion unmolested in this garden Mango and nectarine, sweet honeydew, I beg your pardon My mouth runneth over from ecstasy It's true (it's true), baby, I love the taste of U Loving U in silence, knowing that it's right Under your gaze I ponder this love 2night Unbothered by the chaos swirling around outside In your arms is where I wanna live and die Someplace (someplace) where your face is all that I see (All that I see) Where the love we make intoxicates intensively (Intensively) In a mirror (mirror) where your sweet (sweet) reflections used 2 be There is hope, there is joy, my soul sanctuary My soul sanctuary (My, my, my, my, my soul) My soul sanctuary Oh, my soul sanctuary Soul sanctuary & urs...?  | |

Joy In Repetition
He like to frequent this club down up on 36th Pimps and thangs like 2 hang outside and cuss for kicks Talking 2 no one in particular, they say "the baddest I am tonight" 4 letter words are seldom heard with such dignity and bite. All the poets and the part time singers always hang inside Live music from a band plays a song called "Soul Psychodelicide". The song's a year long and had been playing 4 months when he Walked into the place. No one seemed to care, an introverted this-is-it look on most of their faces. Up on the mic repeating 2 words, over and over again Was this woman he had never noticed before he lost himself in the Articulated manner in which she said them. These 2 words, a little bit behind the beat. I mean just enough 2 turn u on. 4 everytime she said the words another one of his doubts were gone. Should he try 2 rap with her? Should he stand and stare? No one else was watching her, she didn't seem 2 care. So over and over, she said the words til he could take no more, (no more) He dragged her from the stage and together they ran through the back door In the alley over by the curb he said tell me what's your name She only said the words again and it started to rain (rain, rain, rain) 2 words falling between the drops and the moans of his condition Holding someone is truly believing there's joy in repetition. There's joy in repetition. There's joy in repetition. There's joy in repetition. There's joy in repetition. She said love me, love me, what she say? She say love me, love me. Joy, why don't u love me baby, joy, why can't u love me baby Joy, come on and love me baby, joy in repetition Well, lucky-lucky us. Lucky-lucky-luck.
