dancing alone is
what I do best, always have
dancing securely

to trust a partner
sadly seems like a doomed dream
but maybe there's hope

so let the metal rip
although a slow jazz is nice
got to get it out

cause this world and me
surely seems not to mix well
how do I stay nice?

wrong in how they often set

Aim as a dancer
I try to move fluid idly
With grace and some style

A middle-aged man
Shuffles by invisible
No one sees him pass

Disabled since birth
No self-expression in his
Poor ungainly gait

Cannot imagine
How he must want to swap with
Least able of us

maybe it was over there

I pushed my emotions down
For Eight years in all

I tended a dying wife
Only way to cope

Throughout all this time
Struggled to bring up a child
She has grown up now

In touch with my emotions

keep dancing tango -
perception is all and nowt...
we see what suits us.

pigeon holes don't fit
too square, too small, too smelly
for bold tango men

let static pigeons
coo and bill and see the world
through a fixed square frame

your experience
all belongs wholly to you
enjoy and live it!

why it is a lot
of youth embraces wisdom
and age folly, this is

almost like the gens
are seeing the grass is green
failed to see grey/blue

hair on the gen fence
careless or careful, too much
if I try to make

people live my life
rather than live my own as
I had done here once
