The sound of a drum roll
Or thunder
*
Or a truck rumbling past
It wakes up all of our soul
grabs our attention
with some luck
divided fast
or consumed by the sounds
and feelings rushing by
It makes us want to live
And never want to die
**
Hard rain on the window
Or the wind
*
Tree branches scratching the glass
The mood arrives and it flows
Needs some attention
For the win
Focused fast
Connected by the sounds and feelings rushing by
It makes us want to live
**
Fireworks in the cool night
Or a train
*
Or our music on full blast
It can be all that we know
Share our attention
A full pull
Acquired fast
Accepting of the sounds and feelings rushing by
It makes us want to live
And never want to die
