The Fugitive

Iron bars bent open begins the show A black and white striped bonanza A ballet of bravado under midnight skies The bashful dancer eschews an eager audience A plethora of prances covers an endless stage His legs lilt inside a labyrinth of forgotten leisure And no matter the truth of his turbulent persona Tireless desires to dance and devour deliverance Is what drives him from the spotlights in the dark March 18, 2016
