"The Final Call"

Do we dance with the devil

in the pale moonlight...

Or fly with angels

and make things right.

When the mockingbird comes

and the blue jays away

Will we wish for life

and younger days?

Will we dance the dance

until the curtain falls...

One life to live

one final call.

I really like this poem. I can feel the message you have in this poem. I cant believe there aren't any other reviews. I read this to my grandfather (very religious man) and he enjoyed it as well. I hope others like this. Hope you have a wonderful day.

we are free moral agents, we can do and be anything we want. we are free to even take the life we have from ourselves. If we don't do that ( and God forbid we do ) we have the choice of living the right way or living the wrong way. I think this poem asks that question............good poem ......thanks for sharing.

The opening lines took me right back to Tim Burton's Batman, but then you took it in new and exciting directions! The ending is perfect, your words are precise and resonant. Reads really well, well done!
