The Magic of a Juke-Box!
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There’s still time to change the road you’re on
And it makes me wonder
1) Where is this juke-box? Be specific and select a place and time. Does the place have a name? Who will play on the juke-box?
2) What song will your character or narrator select? Why? What does the song evoke or link to?
3) What is the effect of this song upon your character? Do they play it again or choose another?
4) Create an opening to a story or poem, using the juke-box and the song.
