Flicker

Flames dance, wild and restless.

A rave, hands wave high above;

Fingers wiggle at the sky.

Arms stretch out far then are pulled in close;

A deadly Hokey-Pokey.

They wriggle and gyrate,

Swirl and vibrate.

Orange huddles close together with yellow, swaying in a feverish mosh pit,

Waiting to explode out as the beat drops.

Head bangers delight.

Blue, some almost transparent, flames twirl and bow;

A graceful Minuet.

Red

Samba Caliente

Fire circle and square dance

And line dance.

They high step,

Rockette legs kick high.

They join hands and spin.

Low crackling chuckles and high squeals of laughter tickle my ears.

Their tongues lull then lick

Their hands clap, feet stomp.

They writhe and turn

Dance and burn

Dance and burn

I am their partner.
