This is really fascinating, Jacky, because, personally, I hear in it
a "call to action..."

In that sense, for *me* anyway, I don't hear a "meditative" work as
much as, practically, a "military" one...

I surely hope you are not offended by this; possibly it's just my
*own* mood but, without getting too literal, I hear military "morse
code" type stuff and actually the flight of jet airplanes!

Maybe this is not *at all* the kind of interpretation you are looking
for... Could this be, possibly, somewhat subconscious on your part??

Anyway, again, please take my comments in a spirit of friendship and
appreciation. Perhaps I'm just casting my *own* personal feelings
and apprehensions on everything else... but that's what I'm hearing
here...

Wow Jacky, nice piece.

When I heard it, I totally saw Viking ships attacking a helpless
village. Flaming arrows raced toward carnage.

Then the part where the drone changed, I totally could envision the
Viking leader call for an air strike. Norse fighter jets carpet bombed
the entire village. Many people were crushed by huge rolls of shag, and
medium knap New Zealand wool. The carpet was cleverly coated with
Scotch-Gard, so they could roll them up, and use them again.

Then at the end of your piece, it was unmistakable what you had
intended. I absolutely totally could hear the beating.....

Uh........

Wait a minute. That's insane.

Nice peace Jacky. Nice peace.
