I Am..... (Beat Of The Drum)

i am.... the beat of the drum in the electric hot night. i am the horn of the bull, on the streets of Madrid. i am the bofy naked, glistening with sweat. i am tongue and phallus, teeth and desire's pant! i am the river surging through mountains and valleys. i am the house on fire, the wail of sirens. i am the caw of the crow, the screech of the owl. i am the cross ablaze, the lone soldier defiant. the man at the crossroads, who wont sell his soul. i am hate broken, and secret sins revealed. i am the heart pain of need, the wind howling at the window. i am the moon shot down, and oceans gone renegade. i am the prisoner escaped, and the pursuit of the dogs. i am the shot fired, and the body fallen. i am the torch, the knife, the scar, and the prayer... i am! i am!
