Base Line Doing my head in Oh what a sin This is not music Just noise and din Banging and screeching Synthetic sound Pounding my senses Into the ground Turn down the volume Switch off the base Slacken the tempo Slow down the pace Why do you feel That everyone’s deaf And can only hear noises From the lower clef Maybe you’re missing A part of your ear That lets you hear music Like other folk hear Or maybe you’re missing A part of your mind That’s needed to listen to Sounds of all kind Your motive I question For music so loud Is it to make you Stand out in the crowd To see that you’re noticed Above all the rest No matter that people Just think you’re a pest I’m sure someone loves you Without all this din Just turn down the music So they can get in! Ivor G Davies The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. |

Enjoyed the read but ... "That lets you hear music Like other folk hear" Nope - more and more I am coming to understand "individuality" and feel sure it exists amongst the "other folk" too. Be it music of the mind or music made by humankind it is now and will always be how we perceive it to be. |

OriginalNYGuy, This was originally posted on LIT ORG where I recieved numerous responses also but you are the first to se the second meaning of chaos and head chatter that I intended due to the stregth and empathy with the realities of what parents suffer as teenagers take their adventure into music!

Honeybunch, Thanks for the comments, but as I love to find meaning in words may I look at your reply.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "That lets you hear music Like other folk hear" Nope - more and more I am coming to understand "individuality" and feel sure it exists amongst the "other folk" too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If "individuality" exists amongst "other folk" too. Surely "Like other folk hear" Aplies also to you! (LOL) Sorry, couldn't resist... thanks again for looking in and taking an interest... Ivor Ivor |
