"We have to learn to make
The back beat ourselves"
Sound found around
The page leaps w/ lyrics
Of non-linear association
You can catalogue
The world tumbling
The world tumbling
To the present
"The page is inferior."

Love how the words tumble into each other. You've got the rhythm good as any beat.
