Skirmish: Sharp Objects (@robinleaf)Liner Notes
Lyrics
They keep them from me now The things they call “Sharp objects” It was really just one time I used something they hadn’t found
And now they watch me round the clock In case I come across an object Try to find its proper use And to make up my excuses
Sharp objects, such a lovely phrase I find Sharp objects, I can’t get them off my mind Sharp objects, Oh so many different forms How I use them is an art form
But the walls are spongy soft And I can’t come to any harm My arms are tied behind my back I spend my nights here on the farm
Dreaming about Sharp objects, such a lovely phrase Sharp objects, I can’t get them out of my mind Sharp objects, Oh so many different forms You should see me……with one in my hand

Oh goodness, so creepy!!!! Love it. Your POV character sounds so lucid and reasonable while they are showing us that they are anything but. That last line...HA!!!!!
Great to see you here!
Gordon! You're here! I will have to catch up. This is really crafter well and a great song!
I actually think that the prompt naturally leads to something dark. Your song works really well. Cool work.
