Shall we make some music.
Find a rhythm that suits us both.
You take lead on your drums, and I will follow your beat on my tambourine.
A distinguished and strong thump thump thump.
And a piercing and bright ting ting ting.
Or would you play me?
Shake me;
strum me;
tap me as you like.
I will vibrate and I will hum.
Oh Drummer Boy.
Let’s make some music.
Let’s make a beat. Layer our percussion.
When we play together; will we get up and dance?
Or will we cover our ears?
Drummer boy.
Shant we play a fourth of the four quartets.
Silence will be the sound that haunts us.
Ting.
