A Plagiaristic Ode To My Record Player
For The Vocal Ode To Ordinary


I hadn't done a Plagiaristic Poem for a while, and I usually use the sonnet, villanelle, or acrostic forms, but I thought I would try another Ode for the Vocal Ode To Ordinary challenge.
The Record Player was supplied by my friend Marek from RPM in Newcastle
The Prompt
Write an ode to an ordinary object.

I will base it on this Pindaric Ode as I cannot really find a great definition of the form, though I believe I have tried it before. Essentially an Ode is meant to be a poem of praise.
The music is "For Your Pleasure" by Roxy Music which is playing as I write this, and the words in bold are the album titles that I have plagiarised for this piece.
