Dance While Those Around You Weep
Dance while those around you weep
Rhythm of falling tears theirs to keep
While those who are weary fondly sleep
Their journey into oblivion wide and deep,
Seek treasures where the dancers leap
Gather up pleasures while you may reap,
Be not disturbed by an occasional bleep
For their joy will often into trouble seep
And leave your sorrow in a dreadful heap
Where outsiders are wont to take a peep.
