Buzz
Bass pounds through my chest
a drug free buzz,
I become more like myself
with every depression of the keys,
crazy darkness.
The rhythm radiates assaulting my senses
waves of sound crashing,
lyrics on the attack , vocal warriors
a transfusion of overwhelming power,
releasing me.
Crave that hormone rush,
long for the blood coursing through the veins.
pumping in the ears,
volume way up,
vibrating the rafters.

Was this perhaps influenced by my challenge
to write of the positive?
It certainly contains power and passion that I can relate to.
Very much related.

I know you said not to
I know you said not to respond to your poems but can't help myself here... this is your best to date imo. but (again imo) a couple of tweaks here and there.
Bass pounds through my chest
a drug free buzz,
[drug-free, I buzz]
I become more like myself
with every depression of the keys,
crazy darkness.
[absolutely brilliantly vocalized!]
The rhythm radiates assaulting my senses
waves of sound crashing,
[i would leave these two lines on their own 2 lines]
lyrics on the attack, vocal warriors
a transfusion of overwhelming power,
releasing me.
[release me] (doesn't need the ing}
Crave that hormone rush,
long for the blood coursing through the veins.
[Craving that hormone rush,
longing for the blood coursing through my veins
pumping in the ears,] (this is when the full effect of the participle works)
[over the top] (perhaps a line to add)
volume way up,
vibrating the rafters.
last two lines are delicious!

Dear Lou,
I had to come read this again:
The rhythm radiates assaulting my senses
waves of sound crashing,
lyrics on the attack , vocal warriors
a transfusion of overwhelming power,
releasing me.
music is a whole new world to fall into and be swept away by.

Thanks for visiting again, next to writing music is the greatest thing to lose yourself in.
Love Lou
