This is the sixth link in the ongoing poetry chain between clynnbud1 and myself. The rules are simple. you must use the last line of the previous poems your first line. We have no set limit of how many poems we will do, instead we will keep going till we get tired.

The Dancer

(line in italics is from previous poem)

Hearts pound.

beggars stalk.

astounded as

she jiggles;

reenacting pleasure to

cover sadness.

She watches

them asphyxiate; in

a pornographic gumbo;

lost in temptation.
