Could've Been The Last Choice

As someone with  
surfed-over sand
colored hair
once sang - "I dare you to move"
 
---
 
The thrum of a  
pulse persists
that once hushed
itself;
in aches to go
un-thrumming
opting for both  
"truth"
and "double dare"
 
neverminding two cans of molten aftermath
 
Knowing that no...
it is no basement beat
or snare
barely catching tails of
chords within old-hat
neighbors' hearing
 
It's double base pedal  
throbs
and hooks
cymbals sparring...
 
...and that its tone
will find little  
home
in their ears
 
But; to beat
and to beat still  
it prevails
