Pick-A-Title, Vol.45 Contest of Edward Ibeh 11 Aug 2024 Inspiration from a live concert of Earth,Wind,and Fire singing group Philip Bailey- main vocalist Songs- Reasons, Fantasy
Live music leaves me enthralled as thuds of a drum, the intricate fondling from saxophone notes blast these veins until intoxicated head convulses when euphoric tunes pump in unabated-- jazz, R&B, wild soul, and rocking pop ignite primal ectasy in the flesh...raw! Pulse beat raised at 110, my torso gyring in motions uncontrolled-- the cortisol of anticipation surging through an adrenaline high; cool the song- whips , oh more feverish my body trip!...just there, Philip Bailey whams a falsetto higher than high in climactic lifts, my whole body possessed without Reasons on Fantasy's electric stage: Another grasp of dismembered reality lures, where smokey thirst begs for more notes... this moment a cool fever of a thrill from a live concert rushes on, where an elevated zing drugs my soul!

Nette, amazing images that express the delirium of music and all of the endorphins it releases. I like the formatting of the poem that reflects the surges of a musical fever, rising and falling in the mood of cool! Marvelous entry for the contest. Best wishes for a win. Blessings to you.

Nette, I have been to concerts and seen people enthralled in the music, lyrics, and rhythm. The way you describe this seems to match what we see with amazing precision...and with that dreamy quality that occurs in some concerts. You have something going on here that's truly amazing. Smiles.

Sounds like you're a whole lot younger than this reader, Nette. The only thing I've got that gyrating is my equilibrium when I get up from my easy chair. lol. Go, girl!! :) Gershon
