Hearing Aid

When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. - Thoreau

in my irreproachable youth

 i found a compass in music

  flying, nimble fingers

   the pounding drums

    clashing symbols

     eclectic, electric twangers of euphony

      with their finely tuned, lip-smacking strings of ambrosia

       an extension of my poignant, pliable, pulsating phallus

        hypnotizing

         mesmerizing

          synthesizing

           energizing

now ever day is summer

 wondrous wailing never failing

  jammin' and rockin' 'til my dying die

   two plus two adding up to a gazillion

    always center stage like a rattlepated, rallentando reptilian

     alluvial air guitaring floating in perpetuity

      eternal, sanctified serenity

       apostolic anthems accompanying ascending allegiance

        strobed, silhouetted songs

         capitulating cadence

          scales climbing into the stratosphere

           owning me

            translating existence

             articulaing bass, treble and clef

            lifting up my telescoped hands and thanking heaven that

            my sublime soul isn't deaf

Author's Note

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." - Thoreau

I think we all would
do well to. dance to
and feel the beat of
our drummer to the
day we die..our hearing
may dim with age but
the music is as loud
as ever in our souls
keep rocking it

nice work Pete
