Submissions — Week 33 (Theme: Obsession)

The Thirty-Third Theme

Some of the best art in humanity's history, across all forms/genres, has been borne out of creators' obsession(s). Yayoi Kusama loves polka-dots so much that they're all over her work; Leonard Cohen drafted dozens of verses for his song Hallelujah over a period of years before finishing it; Alfred Hitchcock's lifelong obsessions with voyeurism and police show up in his movies time and time again – and on and on.

So this week, I invite you to write a song about one or more of your personal obsessions, or about the idea of obsession itself. Do you love beautiful stationery, fly-fishing, or craft beers, perhaps? Are you continually drawn to certain themes in art you consume or create, like betrayal, seduction, or legacy? You could even write about the recent horror film Obsession, if you like, and the feelings it inspired in you. I look forward to hearing about the things you're all obsessed with!
