a different measure

were we to demonstrate the final dance
you'd be reminded of the things you lack
and bring your life onto a swifter tack

around the haystacks you would lightly prance
and wonder at the ones who filled the sack
were we to demonstrate the final dance

the world's a giant mechanism of chance
some obtain paradise others get the rack
while some will bear the truth on a bare back
were we to demonstrate the final dance
