Music Lovers

Do you clap your hands
on the snare, or the bass drum?
Do you click fingers
on the cymbal or hi-hat?
Does the bass line make
your hips rotate in two planes?

I click in the spaces,
clap on the off beat, mouthing
nonsense to the bass
line's talkative rhythm.

I clap fingers and click my hands.
I don't hear your music;
you don't hear mine.
