Bass

Bring about the pace,

And slow perpetual beat

Giving off that resurging race,

Reacting from electrical heat



Mahogany, ebony, koa, maple, birch

Just let me groove, let me ride

Its a mystical search



No lyric to blast

No simple word to describe

Its just musicians pride

To cast all feelings forth



So raise your head

Shoot it straight

With your ears

Let me rise



From every joy, every tear

Coming forth from your eyes



Just cut it loose, cut it loose

To lifes euphoric ride



Its mother natures emotion

Its Gods most awesome perfection

From every wedding reception

To every funeral persession





Its a sole groove erupting

Your guts entwined and convulsing



Your body just cant stop shaking

The goosebumps simply keep raising



Your pacing, its racing,

I just cant keep it from lacing



That blood thirsty quenched relation



And adrenalin sensation



Jack it

Amp it

Rock it

Groove it

Ride it

Slap it

Pluck it

Strum it



Acoustic, electric, innocent, and eccentric



Its bass alive tonight



So people



Plug it and play it

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was inspired tonight by a rhyme scheme poem I read on the randoms. Felt like doing one myself.

I have read through bass. My first reaction: I laughed not being a bass player I don't feel it the way you have. I want to play some now just after reading this. It really expesses how you feel when you play, but now I know what is in a rocker's head. The bass player isn' heard much in a consert or he doesn't speak. I see his face all the time. Now Iknow what he/she is thinking.
