Break me,
disassemble me if you must
but build me better next time.
I can’t bare another ill-fitting ego.
Dancing in these ridiculous shoes
outgrown a decade ago
the idiot grin finally yields
to burning blisters.
Even the dance, spun from necessity
is outdated and awkward
In fact, every dance I see
every silly play, every make-work crisis
clumsy, clueless conductors
orchestrate tone-deaf symphonies
while we dance our days away.
