                 The Fool

The Fool likes fear
fears danger
dares.
The Fool dances on matchsticks
foolhardy
striking up conversations
with Death.

Dammed Lucifer
A bright boy really
a shame to be so wild
with nowhere to roam
no natural habitat
no normal cullno home,
come home with me.

Dance on the head of a pin
spin sparks alight
black & white
(safety)
now.
