Danse Macabre
Dance with Death's Ballerina on a Silently Operatic Stage
D anse Macabre for me as Macbeth didst with Macduff, whispered the ghastly ballerina..
I gnite with your swaying body's passion mine very molten core.. Crisp mine bony swirling remains to ash with your tapping dori shoes..
S moldering Swan Bands, Smoky, Enshrouded .. Singe/Scatter mine tattered remains with the beating, drumming heart of your living, breathing, dancing anatomy:
T alented..., Lithe..., Acrobatic..., Living, Breathing..., Manly Anatomical Marvel that you are.
R accourci your en pointe shod feet into the mired, worm-riddled bony marrow of mine hollowed skull.
A fter, once thou too hast shuffled from this mortal
C oil, we may together ignite a spark.. A Phantasmagoric Conflagration to set the very sulfuric pits of Hell Afire once more.
T ogether in spirit ... Forever ... Phantoms of this Haunted Opera
I nvitation to Eternal Encores ... No Final Curtains Called
O n this .. DEATH's Nocturnal Macabre BackStage Production
N one too soon the wavering, distracting rays - dawn aborning - bring surcease with dew laden drips of watery light... Mine apparition blessedly, hopefully, dancing off stage left to the next phase in her eternal DANSE MACABRE BALLET.
