Smitten by the lovely ladies of Larkin Poe! (Rebecca Lovell is the most adorable humanđ)Tegan and Sara :) Hopeless romantic... Just waiting to see what the world has in store... | Never Give Up | 23 |
I want your Monday morning
sleep soaked eyes
dream drenched voice,
lazy bones
âfive more minutes please babe.â
I want your Tuesday afternoon
coffee break,
glasses off, laughter on
âjust hold me for a while
itâs been a hard day.â
I want your Wednesday evening
fingers through hair
teeth nibbling nails
neck craning, eye glazing
âthis paperwork never endsâ
I want your Thursday night
drinks for two
bones unbind
muscles let loose
flats, slacks,
âjust me and youâ
I want your finally Friday
stretch soul smile,
sun sipping light
from the glaciers in your eyes
fingers unfurl, hand extends
âcâmon babe, lets go wildâ
I want your weekend.
your movie marathon Saturday
reading by the fireplace
kissing in the blankets
want your Sunday morning
orange juice and pancakes
white sheets, tender skin
hair like the Fourth of July
âletâs not get out of bed today.â
I want your ordinary
and your stress, rest, release
I want your bad day and that terrible night
I want you drunk in my arms
forgetting the place but never my name
I want your lazy and your lonely
and your fist full of fight
I want you everyday
in every way
for the rest of my life.

Larkin Poe - MilkBoy - Philadelphia, PA - April 20, 2016
Pure Girl Power.
Larkin Poe made their presence heard loud and clear Wednesday night at the very intimate venue, MilkBoy, in downtown Philadelphia. Â The two sisters, Rebecca and Megan Lovell, emerged on stage wearing all black, in true rock star fashion. Â They rocked harder than I have ever seen before.
The sisters immediately dove into their first song, âHey Sinner,â which featured heavy southern harmonies and hardcore guitar solos. Rebecca, on vocals and guitar, evoked strong, soulful feelings by using her extremely powerful, deep voice. Megan added background vocals and rocked out on the slide guitar, complimenting Rebeccaâs part beautifully. Â They then moved into what they call their sister love song, âStubborn Love.â
The whole concert was very intimate, with the girls pausing in between each song to share a story or speak with the audience. Â Each song performed had a narrative and strong meaning driving the musical choices and lyrics. Â Rebecca said that she got her inspiration for the next song, âBlunt,â from scary newspaper headlines and the dark things that happen in this world. Â It was an emotional song that aspired to help listeners and young people alike find their paths in this world. Â
The next song âDark Matterâ was written as a retrospective of their childhood. Â Growing up in the 1990âs, they saw a lot of change; both good and bad. Â This song was a reflection of those times and was a nice transition from the previous song. Â Many of Larkin Poeâs songs were deep and dark, not surprising, considering their great-great-great-grandfather, after whom they named the group, was a distant cousin of classic horror writer Edgar Allen Poe. Â However, this bleak vision didnât make the audience feel sad. The songs were empowering, passionate, and extremely inspirational.
What I loved about this concert was the enormous presence of pure girl power. Â These two sisters got up on that stage and killed it, and honestly, as I said above, Iâve never seen anybody rock out harder. Â Their empowerment anthem âDonâtâ highlights the spirit of strong, independent women who are making things happen for themselves. Â
Getting to see these women rock was an honor, especially considering their already impressive track record. Â They recently performed on Conan and have collaborated with huge names such as Mumford and Sons. Â They have also toured the world with Elvis Costello, beginning in Germany and traveling all throughout Europe and the United States. Â While these women might not be extremely well known yet, they will be. Â Their unique style and captivating songs will lead them nowhere but up. Â Â
