enough designs on masks fill

BONGO SPEAK - A DOUBLE TROIKU
slapping tapping
skins resound to conflicts in
the human soul
❧✿❧
slapping tapping
these echoes transport to
an inner world
skins resound to conflicts in
love and loss
passions and gain
the human soul
finding this balm lathers thick
rhythm's curve
slapping tapping
these echoes transport to
an inner world
❧✿❧
slapping tapping
this connection of angst
not knowing where
these echoes transport to
deep deep within
filling nadir
an inner world
feeds the longing rising in
surface ripples
skins resound to conflicts in
love and loss
passions and gain
❧✿❧
skins resound to conflicts in
present day terms
in yesterday's dreams
love and loss
clinging to own center stage
these age old players
passions and gain
who wins who loses who fights
and lives fighting
the human soul
finding this balm lathers thick
rhythm's curve
❧✿❧
the human soul
alive with feelings carry
the torch of hope
finding this balm lathers thick
feathers well preened
flight preparing
rhythm's curve
absorbs creates absolves
agendas new
