Hollow

A Poem by Poetic License

Hollow.

One step forward.

Two steps back.

Three to the side.

And bow.

Purgatory waltz.

Never quite arriving.

A spin and away.

A careless thought.

And memory.

Hollow.

Drumming heart.

Rawhide stretched taut.

Rawhide stretching still.

Teaching.

Pace.

Quicker.

Lighter.

Slower.

Ponderous.

Madness.

Yet we dance on.

And on.

And bow.
