Drill Team
Discipline. Team work.
The joy of joining in
individual efforts to produce
precision in unison.
At attention.
Letting the bugs bite
and letting the sting of it
pass without breaking position.
Paying more attention
to your drill team members
than to hecklers or fans or
anything outside the formation.
Concentration.
The click-click step-step
breath-like movement
of a properly trained
perfectly honed group
you’re proud to be a part of.

Please note: Commentary below is from 2011! 😊
not surprising to me to think of “drill team” as a companion poem with “band” for the article on the making of my first music-based video posted monday
cadences, staccato as they are, are a beat, and develop a rhythm…
what was surprising for me, re-reading today’s poem, was how, back in ’94, i was already linking sound (click-click) with movement (step-step) to “breath-like movement”
but knowing what little i know now, and looking back to then, i see yoga and oneness already working its wonders, without need for training or dogma or gurus
amazing what the folk today, including myself, can now learn with qualified conscientious kind instructors who know safety and anatomy as integral parts of yoga, not something apart…
the members of our drill team back then in high school knew this feeling…
namaste´- con dios – god be with you
