Is it just I who awakes To the pounding buffets on the tambour? Bellowing howls of the morrow Faint spasms in the mind? Does our nervous tension beckon At the crepuscular beams Of a pristine new day? My chest will skip to tremor, My legs will fail and stumble I can’t sustain the efforts necessary in this society. I wouldn't blame a parent, Teacher or friend are not at fault None but I, in my strength’s demise Am to blame for these miseries of failure.

Awaken
Is it just I who awakes To the pounding buffets on the tambour? Bellowing howls of the morrow Faint spasms in the mind? Does our nervous tension beckon At the crepuscular beams Of a pristine new day? My chest will skip to tremor, My legs will fail and stumble I can’t sustain the efforts necessary in this society. I wouldn't blame a parent, Teacher or friend are not at fault None but I, in my strength’s demise Am to blame for these miseries of failure.
