oh, across the music
that band is emitting
one constant always shows up
the singularity
the answer is the way they hit it
the way they put out
sounds
their place
and non-placement
the scale of it when bass meets drums making DNA strands out of themselves
laced with guitar
and all that Vedder says
just right loud able to go through you--skin and graft and bone
blows through you like water
exits through your spine back
so, yes, sweat
yes, head
strength from exhaustion because there were so many inclines and declines at alpine with legs dancing up and down them all night long
twice

mosquito red
washed, rinsed, released

    Very vivid - you capture something. Highly recognisable!

    we as animals from this planet earth do enjoy sounds
    remember the fire music from rocks and sticks
    at some point rain made drop splat hook up with the storm itself and the uprights fire dance

    I am tired; my heart is
    sick and sad. From where
    the sun stands I will fight
    no more forever."

    Wow- great Rollings! You really got your head inside the music...and the reverse as well, creating new music in words. :D
