  1. Flailing away at my primal instrument, I thrust every ounce of power I have to create a primordial beat. Bump, bump. I feel the anxiety of modern life ebb away as I unleash my frustration onto my little bongos. Hail to the ancient!

  3. Bongos? I have like no experience with bongos. Nothing comes to mind. They’re the little drums right? I must sound stupid to someone who knows for sure what they are. And even stupider to someone who owns a set.

  4. I like to play bongo drums just like donkey kong because he reminds me of the good times me and my older brother had when I was younger and could actually get his attention. Childhood.

  13. bongo drums, like that one time at daniel’s house where he and i and his dad jammed with three seperate drums for like an hour and everyone in the house thought it was really cool. bongos remind me of dingoes, but that’s only because they sound similar. i don’t even think i know what dingoes are.

  14. Bongos were the first instrument I played, those long nights in the smokey cafe. It always started out okay, and then eventually the smoke went to my head. I got dizzy, and world began to spin, yet it was wonderful.

  15. The Bongos are coming for me, coming for you. They eat souls like we eat dry roasted almonds. The cry of the almonds rang through the desert air like a siren, a thousand screams caught in their weathered lungs. Forever silent. Forever cold.

  16. the bongos were cold, harsh cold, like a frosty night. Mike was dead as the bongos. dead to the world. He didn’t know what was coming for him on the night of the bongos, nor did he know what lay in the damp earth at the foot of his door. all he knew was the frosty air.

  19. Bum bum bum bongo drum. People dancing and a fire is spitting up hot firefly coals and embers. Darker skin and happy skin with lots of dirt kicked up and bare feet. No care for how you flow as long as you’re flowing!

  20. the steady beat of the bongos kept my hips in check, they were my life right at that moment they were the ones who kept me dancing with that one guy who i just met. nobody knew my secret here just the rythm of the bongos was all that mattered.

  21. Richard feynmann was one of the finest physicists of this century. A nobel prize award winner, he also was an artist, womanizer and bongo player. His nickname was the great explainer, which was given to him because of his great ability to explain things.

  22. “I don’t like them.” Alex stated as she stared at the new instrument she was suppposed to play. Zack laughed at his little sisters expression before pushing the instrument into her hand. “Come on you’ll never know till you try.”

  24. we played the drums amidst a sea of stars, at night we sang at night we dreamed but it all seems unreal now and i wish i could do things like this i wish i could sit under starry night skies with friends and people i truly care about and play the bongos and sing songs off tune and eat good food and draw nice things but this all seems unreachable and it makes me sad that the things i want will never happen and i wish they would

  27. Thump-thump-thump
    I can’t help but move.
    The beat is erratic,
    crazed,
    hard to follow

    But I do it anyway.

  28. Down in the jungle where you hear rumbles and heavens rejoicing in the greatest of spirits of mother earth and all of her loveliness. They thrive off the love.

  29. The Bongos were out in full foce. The silent night pierced with the sounds of these hollow drums, telling the story of a people, a struggle and a triumph.

  30. Most people would think of the instrument, but no, not me I think of jeans, the most comfortable jeans, you can get them in all styles and colors.

  33. He was playing the bongos. It wasn’t normal. He worked in an office, wore a suit every day, and crunched numbers. An accountant playing the bongos. It was wonderful and I loved it, though I would never tell him how much. I just listened from around the corner, smiling.

  34. Spoken word poetry. Statements of individuality so fervently sought after in this age of media-groomed market segments. Soul patches and other ironies of conforming to non-conformity.

  36. i always wanted to go to jamaica. or maybe some other tropical, island, i suppose it doesn’t really matter where. i know that a lot of them are poverty stricken and that maybe going there as a tourist is disrespectful, like i’m not acknowledging their hardship. but i don’t want to go to a resort. i want to go off on a deserted beach, by myself. sit naked in the surf and play bongo drums.

  37. drums that people with little worry in their lives play. or that very poetic people play. or people who are trying to be very poetic. there is a noticeable difference between these two groups of people. both are awesome and unique in their own ways.

  38. they are a fun way to pass the time when not sure what else to do, they add little to no substance to many musical numbers but on the odd jungle-related track, the bongos could be much revered, if piloted by the correctly skilled individual. also, gorillas play them in some movie. i think.

  39. she slammed on the drums in the store alone, thinking of the people far away who had made them and would slap them with the friends, smiling widely and loving their simple lives.
    so unlike her, she had to wince

  40. Bongos? Aren’t they drums? Drums huh? Drums set the rhythm, the flow, the beat to a song. So bongos do it too…’cept they’re cooler and more exotic. Bongos.
