Music

Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)



We dance and dance
In our minds
From songs
With no wrongs.

But not all songs.
Some are explicit
That sing about drugs
And other wrongs.

Some sing about sex
With wrong aspects.
There are church songs
And some about thongs.

Some music is thick
Like wood,
A tongue twister,
You can hear under water.

That thump, thump
Beat we hear that
Blasts our ears,
And brings up fears.

At a concert
We sing and dance.
We jump up and down,
Now that’s a blast.
