Litter on the Breeze - a drabble

[amberdreams]

When we were given the prompt word of trash, I just couldn't get the song out of my head, then I thought, you know, it kind of fits our boys... So, here you have the Winchester's version.

Litter on the Breeze
***********
E/O Drabble Challenge: word count 100
Challenge word: trash
Warnings: Misuse of song lyrics.
Summary:  A song for the Winchesters (Trash by Suede)
***********
Maybe, maybe it’s the scars we bear
The fierce looks and the blood in our hair
Maybe it’s our weariness
Or maybe it’s all the tumbleweed towns
The nothing places and empty sounds
Maybe it’s our loneliness

But we’re trash, you and me
We’re litter on the breeze
We’re brothers on the street
Just trash, me and you
It’s in everything we do

Maybe, maybe it’s the things we’ve done
The dying and living, the battles lost and won
Maybe it’s our blindness
Or maybe, maybe it’s the sacrifices made
The people we’ve lost, the being afraid
It’s our weakness.

To keep it to the 100 you have to do the repeats of lines and the chorus in your head!

You know me, it had to be an ouchie!

That's painfully beautiful and fits our boys so well.

Thank you for giving this a go, and for your lovely comment.

*sobs* that's so lovely. I may need a hug now though x

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Aw hugs all round! Thanks for reading, I know poem-type things aren't everyone's cup of tea!

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Well, they are mine, and I think you'd be surprised how many other people's they are too, so keep at it!
Is there a poem-type thing comm? if there isn't, there should be : ) x

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Not that I'm aware of - have you read indiachick's latest? It's awesome.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I did! It's epic! I'm gonna have to sit down and properly go over it again, there's so much in there.
Maybe we should start one? I never feel like I have a place for my poetical stuff as it's all so short x

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Why not? It might not get a huge amount of traffic but it would be nice to have somewhere to wax poetical on occasions... How does one set up a comm?

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Found one! Well, two. motherlessguns is for Sam and Dean poetry either written or stuff found that would fit and then there's another that is for spn angel stuff also. Whoop! x

Oops saw your other post before this one - that's good. I'll look that one up.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

I saw you posted on it. What did you think? It's pretty easy to set up a comm. so we could always do that. I wasn't sure about the fact that people post non-fan poetry and that it's separated out from other ships and fandoms. I just though it might be nice to have something a bit more inclusive. Or not. My fannish stuff is already a full time job! I don't know why I keep giving myself more stuff to do! : ) x

I don't have much spare time at the moment either - why not try and get people using this existing one? I quite like the fact there is other poetry on there (especially if it reads across to SPN, which the one's I read yesterday certainly did).
