Dancing with the Devil (Free verse) by Liam Wallace
I'm dancing with the Devil
In a smoke filled room.
My ears filled with voices
Crying in the gloom.
It's a Dance that I've been learning now
For many a year.
yet I still stumble badly
And always will, I fear.
I wish I knew the purpose
Or least what mark I'll make.
Will I leave behind some value?
Or do I only take?
Do I underrate my heart?
And overprize my mind?
An ape who crawled out of the mud
Who aspires to the Divine?
Are we the Spawn of Angels?
Or just Darwin's Random Chance?
Are those answers yet awaiting
At the End.....of the Dance?
Liam
