The Blood-red Dance!

088 - Copy

Dance!

It’s a tenuous dance,

a blood-red dance,

held by a string and a prayerful hope.

Then the wind and a twirl–

Dance!

The risk of the fall is worth the dance now.

The forever mystery of death calls for joy now.

Why mourn the blood-red clinging,

in this the prelude?

Dance!
