rak03252:

this one, a couple of weeks old,
am happy to share it...
needed to wait, to see the flow..
tho it may be long, i hope you can see
the way it builds towards the final crescendo
keep in mind, the word "dance",
need not be taken literally
 
 ONE MORE DANCE,EVENTUALLY©
by rak

all eventualities
come crashing thru the door
colliding in the nighttime silence
colliding evermore
 
impossible possibilities
shake the ground you walk
where all eventualities
combine as loose lips talk
 
come down from the mountain
the fountain flow won’t stop
you climbed with mounting trepidation
yet never reached the top
 
explore eventualities
with a fighting chance
every possibility
may lead to one more dance
one more dance
neath moonlight
thru the madness and the lame
dance when there’s no music
a dance that has no name
 
odds are that the oddities
you encounter on your trek
will do more to enlighten you
then cause a mental wreck
if your goal is perfection
you’re bound to be defused
as you watch each failure
you cease to be amused
 
consider eventualities
when you reassess your plight
everything you once held dear
seems to have taken flight
and people you may plagiarize
offer a second chance
and every possibility
may lead to one more dance
one more dance
neath moonlight
thru the madness and the lame
dance when there’s no music
a dance that has no name
 
you think eventualities
can change course
and events
but all the possibilities
still don’t make much sense
 
when everything collides and crashes
bursting to flames,
exploding
sift thru all the pieces
while you find your mind corroding
 
some will say eventually
karma comes around
yet on your joyless journey
no karma has been found
you’ve learned to go
without the things
necessity demands
you try to rationalize it all
but there’s no place left to stand
 
and when you can stand no more
give it one more chance
stand up for eventualities
stand up for one more dance
one more dance
neath moonlight
thru the madness and the lame
dance when there’s no music
a dance that has no name

manof_darkness: A wonderful poem Rak, unfortunately it reminds me of an addiction or two I may have had to overcome in my life. But still a wonderful poem.
