Dancing Demons Always Dance

Demanding demons
All fight in my head
They’re inside my dreams
Before I even get out of bed

They frolick and they play
They take up some time
As I try to get other things
Done in my mind

I fight them, I befriend them
I ask them why have they come
And all of them answer
That they’re simply not done

And then I ask “Why me?”
And they laugh all in chorus
I say “What’s so funny?”
And they reply,
“Your mind is so porous.”

Tell me what you will
Who knows if I will listen ?
As I dance and fight my demons
Is it just a premonition ?

Could it be the battle’s won
Or are we both pretending
To know a thing that we can’t
Because demons are never ending?

Slay the one and there’s three others
Skipping down the lane
Smiling in their demonic ways
As they cause the inner pain.

Twirling round
like tea cups spinning
Laughing as they gain
I stand here
with my vorpal sword
And cut them down like grain

But sure, Regale me
State your case
I’ll listen to what you say
And contemplate it deeply
As I step back into my fray.
