Dance with the Devil
His steps
are like
fire.
I watch
him,
still,
eager
to burn.

The word ‘still’ is great–implying a long-standing fan of the dance. That one word made me read the poem several times.
A kick in the gut for those of us who just will not resist what should be resisted!
And you did it in so few, well chosen words. That’s talent.
