This is a poem using lyrical diction written for class. It is about a violent event.
Wrestle
A dance took over the stage,
tiptoeing around one around,
watching with glazed eyes
for the movement about to begin.
The music sweeps the floor
as shoes float across the room.
Arms tango, feet waltz.
Muscles contracting, moving to the beat
of a single drum at sunset.
The stage shakes gently,
waving under the patterned steps.
A dip flows gracefully onto the ground
as the dancers compete with their song.
Heartbeats quicken, steps more intricate
reveal themselves. And as the dance
comes to a close,
no clear winner has won
the rose.
