Ode to Angst (For Fall Out Boy): Day 29

Take This to Your Grave

Never kept to its name

As secretive as a flag at full mast

In a basement in Chicago

In the eternal night of 2001

Losers in eyeliner fought

For whose angsty poetry

Captures cutting cynicism

And every song (I'm sorry, 

every song is about you)

Is an invitation

A welcoming

To wallow in misery
To savor angst

It hit #5 on Rolling Stone

Because that record is the kindest thing

She says bring your hurt

She says let's whine

Prompt: "Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem that takes its inspiration from the life of a musician, poet, or other artist."
