Dancing God

Diotima Sophia

Dancing god
Laughing god
You who make armies flee

Goat footed god
Hermes’ son
Will you dance with me?

Within the city scape you find me
No daughter of the land
The daily grind entwines and binds me
Will you offer me your hand?

Even in the city streets
There’s wilderness to find
Among the stone and marble seats
Of learning and of mind

For Arcadia’s a state of mind
As well as forest dim
If I look for you, will I find
You dancing, there, within….?

Dancing god
Laughing god
Terror brought at noon

Laughing god
Dangerous god
Will you dance with me …. soon?
