Text Box: Paul Marshall

 

 

 

 

 

The beauty of music that beats

Pots and pans of percussion eruptions

Skin-thin is the drum of the heart

Ache in your hardship or rip,

Into rhythm

Eons of tribals

Be with them

Here

Oh father provider come in here

Melting we listen

Lifting to your rhythm

It’s a sweat and a thrill

Be our touchstone

Whether a junk bin

Or a found foundry

Skips-full of listening

Beat in my kitchen

You handy utensil

Seek fusion inside

And without – where I’m diving

Homemade are your sticks

         that play from the heart

Pulse in us all

Pulse in us all

Pulse in us all

Paul Marshall
