Iron Butterfly

i love
music, but have zero musical
talent.
the best
i can do is sing a song
in the shower,
or tap
my hands on the dashboard
like i use to do when
i was young
and riding shotgun in someone's
smoke filled,
beat up old car.
usually a green dodge dart.
i used to have In-a-gadda-da-vida down
pat, by
Iron Butterfly.
especially the drum solo.
sometimes i can't get that beat
out of my head.
which is distracting
and a concern to my therapist
as i tap
my fingers and feet
while she asks me another question
about my mother.
