To Ask Her To Dance- Young Mans Perspective

She dances like a beautiful song
playing under the needle of my eye
We,the entranced wallflowers,
listening to her song,
one that speaks to the heart

The room spinning 
turning into a Gravitron ride
without our notice
except for the feeling of being pinned,
pressed further into the wall
our backs are holding up

The greatness of the Centrifugal force,
The battle of Inertia,
would allow our bodies to turn upside down 
at this very moment

We watch in awe and wonderment
as one mighty- valiant Brethren 
boldly defies all Physics 
Tearing away, growing legs and a voice
to ask her to dance

This style Inspired by Poet Billy Collins. I learned poetry doesnt have to rhyme.

Just thinking back to when I was young and how things felt.
