This is a poem I originally submitted to my school paper
the rhythm gives a steady pulse
dizzying, blinding.
my heart beats heavy
only to Please.
[the heady demands drive me on]

my head swivels,
my body turns,
each Note drives me
to a higher plane
of blissful exultation.

my brain is plagued
with the heavy beat.
i’ve become a slave…

for when the Music sounds,
i respond.
