DANCING
(It’s not about you!)

Oh sure you assume
the crowd’s cheers are for you
the applause / the trophies /
the fame

It benefits me to let
you go on assuming /
and so I continue
the game
You are after all
by everyone’s standards
professional, on that
we agree

But don’t think too highly
climb down off your throne,
for without -me-
You dance alone!
