Mixtape

Artful combination
Seemingly random
All your favourites

A gift for a friend
A summer evening on the beach
A road trip
A walkman

Lost art form
Token of friendship
Trade them and borrow them

Snippits from here and there
Songs by many artists
Slow and meaningful to
Silly and outrageous

Musical collage
Cut and paste
Onto magnetized tape

Plastic cassette
Polished and rectangular
Perfect medium
Persistant and re-recordable

Make me a mixtape
Share that window
Lets bond over beautiful music

Let me give you
Let us listen together
Let us get a little closer
Let you get to know me a little better

You can tell a lot about who a person is
Just by the songs they choose
take the time to listen

Go retro
Mixtape
I salute you
