Miraculous dancing.A Poem by Modern Helot
Every new shadow acts quick to conceal the existing lights
Even the clouds in the sky accidentally darken earth So how much more must we, more imperfect than the clouds Cast shadows on the fates of our fellow man Accidental or no, the resultant outcome is darkness Without deliberation and consideration we are all doomed to fall How about that dark eternal pit, the one that's filled with fire? Does that no longer hover over us? No longer do we fear it For reason has taught us that angels cannot dance However they dance on our heads, and in our beds They dance and drink to our grand misfortune - by design We cast down the tyrants, and cast away our blinders And those devilish dancing angels, how mischievous They vanished and hid themselves from our eyes Leaving naught but our hearts to guide us instead For those cunning, cunning devilish beings Knew that our hearts were blinded and broken By the dry pursuit of making sense of the miraculous Which stumble our minds, but pierce our hearts It is all good and well to stand in the grand ballroom And declare that dancing does not exist But my heart is full of songs and rhythms And my feet, oh my wayward devilish tapping toes Cannot for the sake of me, keep themselves still When then are there songs in my heart? Do I need my head to follow, or can I simply instead Follow my feet unto the ultimate truth within us? And find my place dancing with the angels. © 2015 Modern Helot |
