A reflection on this as the tenth consecutive time that I have completed the NaSoAlMo challenge. Same for February Album Writing Month and Fifty Songs in 90 Days challenges.
lyrics
Ten Years
Eadd11 - oo21oo; Gadd11 - 335433; Aadd11 - 557655;
[Eadd11] Ten years of FAWM
Ten years of 50/90
Ten years of NaSoAlMo
Still not where I wanted to be
[Gadd11] But where did I want to be
That is the mystery
Even to me
[Eadd11] Ten years of songs
Ten years of poems
Ten years of free writes
Mind dumps and clustering
[Aadd11] So I get in my electric car
Look back over the expansive landscape
I have crossed
Synapses firing [Gadd11] millions of electrons
[Aadd11] All of the things that [Gadd11] I have made
[Eadd11] So many have forgotten
Do I do another
Ten years of songs
Ten years of electric cars
Ten years of engineering
What could go wrong
