Analysis of Drumbeat

inspiring those with  
Supernatural abilities,

speaks directly to hearts
with passion/creative diversity

bringing offset harmonies
and people together to a beat

Stepping into worlds
of visionaries bearing gifts  

At will opening
closing temporal rifts  

Of elemental progressions,
touching to depths ethereal

Making complex impressions

Touching soul and being intimately,  

Arousing feelings
between waking moments  

coming in and out of phase

speaking of ancestral dreams

each beat a natural means  

to …become fluent in timing
sensually climbing  

building walls of sound…

Fashioned by ancient technology,
designed with nature.

Material handpicked,
chosen carefully by craftsmen

engineering by manipulating interpretive sound.
To speak in rich, roaming streams of tones

Moving mountains, wings of sound with interwoven beats pounding rhythmically timed, sublime…

Practiced to perfection, drums which speak.  

Telling stories of heroes/sheroes made,
dues paid, love being made

Of Kings and Queens
living beyond castles and thrones…

Being Real people
relating naturally

living in our bones

Paired with living sounds
in the mosaic,
of memories replayed,

messages of love
relayed to our souls   

Being portrayed
as warning signs,

telling us do not continue to be
played for a fool, used as tools

to a trade/in undertones,
its song to carry us far, wide…

Talking drums
move people to leap into action
…dance.

Call people to war …if need be

Deliver the word faster than birds can fly.  

Hit hard by hands feet/expanding minds  

Hollow logs/animal skins stretched taut  

Speak love notes ways which can’t be taught

Steel drums, electronic instruments,  

Drumsticks and brushes, even balls and chains,  

Become part of the instrumentality
where hand falls on part of the drum,
aiming for that sweet spot

where how the drum is hit
connects which makes it… sizzle and pop!

Messengers of emotional keys
to spiritual realms

building blocks to pleasure,
pairing with vocal cries

Elevates moods… creating trance states
taking us to new dimensions

To rhythms leaping deliberately.

Bathed in echoes
mind/body/spirits

speaking live, vocal notes.

You can set aside, yet not ignore

As souls in flight
dance to the other side  

Of who we truly are…
among the stars.  

Not by chance
our steps fly  

To other dimensions
 to find ourselves  

A meeting place…

In other worlds
in time
