Jacob Reinhardt Poet Free verse

Dance In the Colors

All around me
Great cities made of sand.
Green sky scrapers poke through the ground 
To thrive in life’s strict conditions
And melt away with the tide…

Great houses made of cards
Form lines and tightrope walk existence,
Knowing that any moment, the wrong brick may fall
And buckle our world to its knees
As Mother Earth shouts Jenga from the sidelines.

So while were here
Dance in the colors
Poised miles above reality,
Leap over the heavens on domino stilts

Floor it in the sky
Living death in the fast lane,
Flourish in faith and 
Seize the day in light speed,
Because any moment 
We could disappear 
Into
