You take my hand
Like it is the natural thing to do
And we march toward Death’s gate
Yawning at us
Smiling that infinite grin
One minute a warrior
The next minute ash
and how did one misstep
in a dance meant for the adroit
go so terribly out of rhythm?
I came by surprise in this one, Lana. Wonderful poetry.
Thank you Diana, and thanks for stopping by 🙂
Powerful prose Lana. One wrong step is all it takes. Love the image too! Fitting! <3
Thanks Debby! Yes, that’s right, just one step can make all the difference. <3
