Life’s a Dance
They say that life’s a dance
and that you learn it as you go—
the problem is that dancing
is a skill that I don’t know.
I’ll stumble through the paces
and make a mess of things,
and step upon your willing feet
with all the pain that brings.
I’ll blunder like a baby,
and fumble on the floor,
and trip and fall and send us both
right through a plate-glass door.
I know what they are saying:
that movement makes you free—
the question that remains is,
would you want to dance with me?
