Going To Bed With My Bass
When I strum it hums,
when it lays still
it calls to me,
enticing,
inviting,
biting,
but that thrum
that reverberates
through my body
every time I caress it,
that what I live for,
bouncing energy
into the bodies
of the patrons,
causing a jovial reaction,
(creation)
that spreads
like a fatal disease
flopping,
bopping,
hopping.
React,
rejoice,
embrace the bass,
the creation of rhythm,
the formation of groove,
resonance
playing the nerves
like strings
of its own body
making the feet stomp,
head bounce,
blood rage,
taking control
of the very form
we dwell within.
