record player buzz
calling always to be played
just wants to be used

my record player, when plugged in, makes a constant noise that can fade into the background but, when noticed, sounds like it is crying out to play music
... and occasional Tanka... and Haibun. Started after a competition on the unbound.co.uk blog (see #1 and #2). Mostly actually senryu, I think. This year attempting to publish a Haiku every day - 365 Haiku a Day. For good or for ill, I always aim to stick rigidly to a 5-7-5 structure - forgive me if I have counted the syllables wrong, often they are how I have said, or thought, them in my head rather than their official number.

katydids sit in the trees
