Music Passion One
Folk Rock is my comfort zone
when lost and alone
It’s there I find home
if beset by depression
feelings of failure
I rush to my core
and sing some James Taylor
Rock’n Roll
soft or hard
emoting free rebellion
transports me
on bright sweaty stage
where my loyal fans
scream with rabid glee
as I shred
my air black SG
with utter abandon
to AC/DC
Blues
Deep soulful evidence
That many more
than just Jesus and me
know the troubles I see
smarting, hurt from life’s stings
I find empathy
when BB King sings
when lost and alone
It’s there I find home
if beset by depression
feelings of failure
I rush to my core
and sing some James Taylor
Rock’n Roll
soft or hard
emoting free rebellion
transports me
on bright sweaty stage
where my loyal fans
scream with rabid glee
as I shred
my air black SG
with utter abandon
to AC/DC
Blues
Deep soulful evidence
That many more
than just Jesus and me
know the troubles I see
smarting, hurt from life’s stings
I find empathy
when BB King sings
Author's Note
There is none more effective therapy for me than music it has and will ever be my most faithful friend. My goal is to learn, perhaps master an instrument in addition to my singing voice which is by no means perfect. The guitar in my photo was given me by my 88 year dad thus giving me even more incentive to learn. NaPoWriMo Competition 2021 #3

... all i'm saying is you clearly have nine lives bats eyes batman 🤘🏻😆
i feel this on every level and all i'm saying is preach, i do love me some ac/dc when the world feels like it's against me, i practically have earphones attached to me on a daily basis to get through the days of shitville and it's never let me down, although i should probably consider buying shares in apple earphones sometimes soon, i often wear them to death 💀 👀 i always believe if somebody wants to get to know a person they should trade playlists of their favourite songs, it's amazing what we learn from them :)
there was a lot of passion for music and different genres lingering here my friend and there's a lot of different avenues you went down too which i felt was very human to explore and share with us, for that i want to say thank you as not many would do that i don't think, i wonder what your playlist looks like well ... if this poem is anything to go by then i bet you've got some right bangers going on in your collection good sir 😎
thank you for sharing batman 🦇
hope all is well in the manor

My favorite morning AC/DC song is "Let There Be Rock." I literally shed a tear when I first heard the classic Rock'n Roll riff in the middle of the piece. My all time favorite is "You Shook Me All Night Long." What's yours?
Alfred, with your permission I will be continuing my music genre series for to more poems.
Stay safe Stay sane,
Batman🦇

That's air-shredding Sir Alfred🤠 i like all you mentioed. Brian v. Bon? I think I prefer Bon still. I loved the humor in his presentation and the mischievous grin. The singing also seemed less forced. Have you ever heard The Mighty Mighty Bosstones? I discovered them in a used CD store and they blew my Ska loving mind. Their messagez are so relevNt to oue current difficulties. Thank you my friend🙏

bon scott all the way my friend! he always had the passion inside of him from the valentine's, fraternity to ac/dc and it reflects in his stage presence but i think he was home in himself when he joined ac/dc, he just felt a crowd in an understated manner and didn't have to do a hell of a lot to impress either, haha! i do know the mighty mighty bosstones, simmer down is often a summer jam i play from them, i also like so sad to say and where'd ya go too, such an underrated band but i agree their lyrics are incredibly current and ooze humanity 😊
always a pleasure batman 🦇

Re. Music Passion One
Let me just say, I thoroughly loved this conversation to pieces and utterly basked in being a voyeur!!!! (sorry not sorry)
Oh, and I have seen AC/DC a total of 4 times live and I've met Brian, Angus and Malcolm(Rip) ... twice... Back in Black is an album that is perfection from beginning to end. Every person (yes, every person) should have it incorporated into their playlist or in my old school brain, should own the album.... heh heh
Outstanding write, BB!
Without music, I doubt I would be typing this now. Not being ominous, just honest.
It's. life. saving.
Thank you for sharing and thank you and Ethan for allowing me to peep!
PS... I must uncover why 'batman?'... 🤷🏻♀️
Maybe one day!
🌹 💜

Sorry BB, I firstwrote this in the comment rather than reply;
Dear, Lady Blue, I am so sorry for this late response to a supply awesome comment.
Nothing sorry about liking my conversation with Ethan (Alfred) the guys super creative and super cool...so says the batman🦇😁🦇
I did not know you are a Rock Goddess too. I've spent a lifetime wanting to see AC/DC and you've been to tea with the band❣️😉 Did Angus wear his sweat saturated school boy garb?
I had an aunt that struggled pinning down my musical taste. One year, for Christmas, she gave me a Commodores album...I'm certain my parents were not enthused as I sang "Ow she's a brick houuuuse, she's mighty mighty just let'n it all hang out." throughout the house.
The next Christmas she gave me "Back in Black" and my musical life changed.
I hear you about the life saving quality of music...I too would not be here annoying the hell out of family with my constant warbling.
Don't dare question the Batman...if ya do I'll I'll I'll hang over your bed🦇...no guano just heavy Bob bat breathing😁🐻💋🐻💋🐻
