POWER OF DRUMMING

Drumming
by TwoHawk Speaking for White Eagle


There is a new drumming going on inside your brain
Six new drumbeats of a heart
Once filled with pain:
The sound of Determination
The sound of Dedication
The sound of Desire
The sound of Reflection
The sound of Truth and Resurrection,
All unique, though the latter two sound so close to each other
You're never sure which one beats strongest
There is a new rhythm one can tap your toes to
Pa-dom, pa-DUM, pa-dom.
Pa-dom, pa-dom, pa-dom
Pa-dum, pa-DUM, pa-dum
Once you've mastered these three heartbeats
Your heavy burdens will have been lifted
Your heart set free.

Your life's been gifted, my friend
Your soul has shifted, sifting softly through the sands of time
You never grow old with this beat so vibrant

Only a heart fills with gold
When Truth, Resurrection, Determination, Dedication Desire
And Reflection become one
Enfolding you as though you became
The Drum itself.

I think you have, my beloved friends.
We have become such a drum.
Aho!
