Rhythm study

Listen to your own rhythms

Use this-
Use this-
Listen to your own rhythms
The rhythms you know
Not the rhythms you don't know
The rhythms from within
Not the rhythms borrowed
Your natural rhythms, your own natural rhythms
Of your voice, of your mind, of your thouhgts, of your actions
Know these
Listen to to these
Copy these, and emphasize these
Enunciate
Enunciate
Enunciate
The oldest piece of advice
Know thyself
To thine own self be true
That's poetry

yeah! these are fun to write... and to read as a sort of meditative exercise.. and using language as an instrument literally. this came out well

Great exercise in rhythm, although I'm surprised you didn't stay with the heart beat a little longer. There...I got into those damned internal rhythms again and forgot to tell you I enjoyed this piece.
