Infuriated, the hammer's apparatus 
Clicks, like the intricate 
Interworking 
Of an antique and
Anachronistic 
.
Machine; 
.
Infuriated, the hammer taps
In sequence, against the brass
Firing pins, set
Into the cylindrical, pressed ends
Of six, hollow pointed and 32 caliber
.
Cartridges.
.
.
Dance.
.
.
The rounds spray gravel, as they embed themselves
Before hop-scotching, and overtly unencumbered feet - 
Decorated, thereby, with crimson ribbons,
Crimson ribbons, and hypocrisy.
.
.
Dance, then;
.
Dance like you've got it coming;
.
Dance;
.
Dance;
.
Dance.
.
