the drum beat

the drum beat

The Drum
beat
is
sounding

Awake

I crawl
out
of
bed
to
get
my
gear

the drumĀ 
beat
is
sounding

she
tells
me
to
stay
under
the
covers

but
she
knows
I
will
go

The drum
beat
is
sounding

I need
the
combination
to
the
safe

the drum beat
is
sounding

My German Shepherd
lies
next
to
my
feet
as
I
dress

The
Drum
beat
is
sounding

and

all
I ever
wanted
is
to
liveĀ 
my
life
as
a
libertarian
in
peace

while
affording
others
the
right
to
their
own
tranquility

The
Drum
beat
is
sounding

The Bolsheviks
can
already
be
heard
gathering
in
the
east

The Drum
Beat
is
sounding

They
want
censorship
in
voice
mind
and
soul

The
Drum
beat
is
sounding
as
I hear
Beto
Scream

"We will
take
your
AR15s'
Your
Livelihood
and
Your
Freedom"

The Drum beat
is
sounding

The Patriot
prepares
for
a
modern day
revolution

The Drum beat
is
sounding
yet
the
sheep
are
too
busy
listening
to
itunes
to
take
notice

the drum beat
is
sounding

Our
Freedom
is
at
stake
the
entitled
are
blind
while
the
Snowflakes
melt
as
they
fall
to
the
ground.........

Being Me

I love, love, love the way you use the lineĀ  "the drumbeat is sounding" because it gives the whole piece here strength and it holds it all together creating such an atmosphere. An atmosphere of boding, of something getting bigger.... And louder. Agitation in the air. Very clever repetitive use of that line. If only we all heard it. Some do, some mistake it for the stuff on their ipod or 'game'. I think, with this virus, or what has struck me with it, is that we are being controlled tightly by governments who clearly don't know what the f*ck they are doing. And what of the virus? I was all believing that it was just a nasty but natural mutation and species hop, but now I don't know what I think. There is an underlying feeling of something nasty lurking in the corner of every room in every building in all the world and it is also clear that there is an elephant there too.Ā 

The virus is a fabulous excuse to allow a lot of laws to be passed that would otherwise not be tolerated.Ā 

A really fabulous thought provoking write, Greg x
