Dance Fool

Dancing with a fever
is never a good idea
still, one cannot help but move
when a certain song slips through

Delirious and dizzy
helplessly spinning to wily ways of a sax
fever or no fever
I must move

Because the crooning voice cannot be denied
especially when the words are each delivered like a beautiful surprise
the throat pregnant with notes
carrying them, loving them into being

Sometimes music can be that good
that I am willing to compromise my center of gravity
lose my balance
and simply dance

Dancing with a fever
is never a good idea
still, succor is more likely to come
when I'm a dancing reeling fool
