Lady L
She dances with the devil
At this the midnight hour
She whirls and twirls
Evoking the strangest urges
Madness still prevails
And yet she keeps her steady beat
Not leading, yet not quite following
Her partners in the street
Oh grand gal clad in your gown so regal
Careful now, don’t trip, be wary
With the dawns early light, ugliness can
Sometimes reveal a look that is unkind
~ Annie / February 2011
Nice. I like the final stanza. Has a feel of haiku gotcha to it.
