LOCKED
IN A
LITTLE
TINY
SQUISHY
BOX
in a little tiny squishy box
Houdini never faced more rigid locks
but if Houdini could escape each box
I too can break the locks
the blocks
the spells
under a humungous rock
a ten ton boulder wedged and stuck
in a padlocked cell
my personal hell
hard to stave off despair
believe finally I will reach air
will reach
more than air
don't care about empty air
love blue sky
open fields
but need
need
need
need to reach
need to touch
need to get to
where I am heard
where my gifts
are seen as gifts
are opened
where my gifts feed and fuel
where they build and grow
but in a tiny squishy blackdark box
padlocked in a cell with massive locks
this is not
not
not
stuck under a ten ton rock
blocked by an avalanche
a roadblock
I am tired
I despair
I need sleep
and more
I need to reach
someone who more than cares
who can give a hand
from the other side
where reaching can
happen
touching can
where I can
be who I
need to be
someone who reaches
with her gifts

Elsas Words Music.
Locked in a little tiny squishy box.
Under a ten ton rock.
Houdini never faced more rigid locks.
How break the spell, the personal hell?
Elsas spoken word rap poetry.
A dozen
years ago,
I began to wake up
with word pieces -
words music, spoken word, songs -
in my head.
Escape velocity.
Echo of the echo.
Tank almost empty.
Can't cross the gap.
Welcome into my world.
WORDS
MUSIC WORDS
Every
time I'm going
into the words not knowing
what kind of thing I'm doing
what is this thing I'm making
what are these words creating
Words
music, music words, rhythm beat,
spoken word, song,
words music, words beat,
rap poetry, indie alternative music,
trip hip unhip unzipped
whispered, shouted, sung.
What is this?
spoken word poetry?
indie alternative music words?
indie alternative words music?
performance art?
rap tap rhythm song?
Where do these words belong?
They don't follow song rules
so they can't be songs
Are some rap
with a rap beat?
Are some spoken word?
Some are to be sung -
country, trip hop, pop, folk, blues,
indie alternative music,
country folk, rock and roll, rap,
world beat, jazz, folk pop,
rhythm and blues.
rhythm beat strong
words to be spoken
words to be sung
words to be lived
moments
rhythm beat
What's cooking?
Whatever comes -
words alive
words strong
words music words music
rhythm beat
strong
movement
words moving
words shaping
words taking
words trying
to catch life
to catch moments
moments like fireflies
one moment bright
next moment
gone
words
words and rhythm
words to be spoken
words to be sung
words, sounds, music
words going on and on
like the beat of a drum
word pieces
piecing together moments
stronger
fainter
closer
and then
can't hear
they're gone
like moments
but
in word pieces
a shadow lives on
words music words
listen
Elsa's
word pieces - moods, moments
