I think best sitting in a shadow

watching the world go by,

dancing its ruthlessly twisted tango.

-

Endless steps (eager to follow),

lit by admiration's eye.

I think best sitting in a shadow.

-

Continuous pressure, ebb and flow,

easy to get caught, whisked away,

dancing its ruthlessly twisted tango.

-

Curious temptations grow,

to watch, dance simultaneously...

I think best sitting in a shadow.

-

A lusty note, at first slow,

exhilerating, blindly

strumming the ruthlessly twisted tango.

-

Swept up, face aglow,

feet on fire, thoughts awry--

I best think, sitting in a shadow,

but I love life's twisted tango.
