When I Was a Little Stereo

[psycosynthesis]

My speakers emit glossolalia
Caught up in the passion of the rapture
Preaching electric, eclectic gospel
Catching the waves of sinners as they fell.

Hey, that's actually cool; I like it.

Me too. That word glossolalia is beautiful. When I first read it, I thought you made it up. Googled it only to discover that it's "a meaningless string of syllables" ie. talking in tongues. Funny that the word itself sounds made up. I'm sure this is no co-incidence. Anyway, yeah, I like the poem. Makes me think of listening to music on dissociatives for some reason. The only thing I'd suggest is to change the last word from "fell" to "fall", to keep the tense consistent. Either that or change "emit" to "emitted". Fall is better than emitted, in my opinion; but - either way - it's a tight little poem. I like it.
