Good Morning..no shopping or partying here. I steer clear of stores until after New Years & the schools & others work schedule are back in session (we're both retired).

Friends used to do a NYE Party, low key, lots of food, people jamming, but Covid & age kinda killed that off.

Caterwauling Caterpillar:

I saw Frozen. It was pretty decent, definitely watchable. Also aged out of Disney animated features after the Lion King but have seen a few of them since. Lilo and Stitch was surprisingly good, also worth watching

I wonder if this thing I wrote in 2015 qualifies as "abcedarian"

"Labels (But I Still Want You)" © ddai 2015

I'm an atheist, buddhist, communist scum
A dadaist, existentialist, fetishist bum
A geologist, herpetologist, individualist freak
A jingoist, kafkaist, logicist geek

But I still want you, yeah I still want you

I'm a messianic, narcissistic, otocystic slime
A paleontologic, quixotic, robotic mime
A shamanist, taoist, universalist priest
A vitriolic, workaholic, yogistic, zoologistic beast

But I still want you, yeah I still want you.

Pretty sure all of the "ists" actually exist.
I think I looked them up at the time I wrote it. :)

It's Mr. Bungle (but not in the jungle)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:44am
Amanda:

@dday, I think it does not qualify because the lines start with "A" rather than each letter alphabetically. But it's a cool poem anyway.
Avatar 7:46am
dday:

Thanks :) I wrote it while sitting my car waiting for a co-worker to show up on a jobsite. Not sure what if anything inspired it other than ways to attach "ist' to a word. A fun 15 minute exercise.

Thanks. I used to do a lot of lyric writing for local area musicians (the pitfalls of a stage shy musician). Some were recorded, most not. I have hundreds lying around . The bulk are copywritten & published by a label a friend started in '93. They are my children still searching a home.
