Melophile

A Poem by Pete

The pleasure we feel in music springs from the obedience which is in it. - Thoreau

Hypnotizing rhythms.

Mesmerizing beats.

Subliminally owning me.

A pantheon of power.

Hanging 'round my neck like a crucifix cradling gold.

Lyrics speaking to my delinquent soul.

Eternal songs last more than a little while.

Guess I'm just a hopelessly addicted ...

... melophile ...

I like the intro (first 47 seconds) and especially the ending (5:00 - end) of this song.
