Vinyl and Beer

The Vinyl turns,
and all I can think of
is how its wearing away

Slip it back into its
mylar sleeve

Am I saving it for future generations?
as document of... what?

Use it up, wear it down to nothing
As we sit at drink beer and laugh
and make plans (some we'll make real).

And their children..will they know how we were?
That we had great taste in music,
and we moved to it like water flowing out of a container.
We blew out speakers and melted amps' transistors.
I wish I could've seen my parents in such moments.

My gift to the future generations.
must be through a life wearing out vinyl.
Not presenting a collection in mint condition.
