the manner in which to play a drum
since before man could speak
- or even cook his kills
has been discussed, ad nauseam.
as in any hunt, a timid approach is not advised
- there is enough instinct left in the drum to sense this.
you need to know "why" you are punching the skin
and there is no time for epiphany in mid-fight.
the drum is primal -
wood,
steel
and skin.
elements devised in primordial Mind.
they gave with dignity and chase,
- pounding and fire.
the drum responds to these virtues - only.
