it’s repetitive yes
rhythmic and thrumming
undulatingly slow
or thumpingly fast
and muted
yes
but i dont seem to care anyhow
i can only convince you
of what you want to believe
life is a timed waltz
yet you’ll never know
when it
meets its defeat
that elusive beat
that keeps thudding on
one day for some reason or other
decides it’s out of tune
or too played out too
and never wants to hear its music again
leaving you in disharmony
or worse
silence.
