The Beat of the Drum

The beat of the drum,
Is in my ears,
And as I run,
It drowns my fears....
For survival is key,
Whilst evading the guns,
Just to get free,
And to say that you won.
That you had beat Death,
Broke away from his grasp,
That you steal a breath,
just for that last laugh.
So why so hard to be a beast,
And to work so long,
Just to be at peace...?
So bang that gong,
Signaling my release,
From your society, goodbye, so long....

    I just spewed this out in a matter of seconds, and I've never been able to do that. But it describes me and my animlistic side to life. Having a dragon as a Gaurdian Spirit while being Christian is often given a "=/" expression...

    Nice poem. It has a nice flow to it. Not sure what you are talking about. Is this like a ole to drums. The title reminds me of a song called Fiddle & The Drum by A Perfect Circle.
