To climb steep hills requires slow pace at first.
                                    –– William Shakespeare

Someone dancing inside us
learned only a few steps
the do-your-work two step
and the what-did-you-expect waltz

He hasn't seen yet
the woman standing away from the light
the one with the dark eyes
who knows the rumba and strange
jumping steps from the mountains of Bulgaria

If they dance together
something unexpected will happen
If they don't, the next world
will be a lot like this one.
                                                          –– Bill Holm
