dance
of courage
red cape tempting
a ballet
by skinny menin
too-tight pants
who know
they're no longer
heroes
but theyignore
ignore and hold
the slain bull's ear with pride
ignore and showthe crowd
ignore and cry
(their tears, of course, are because of the sun-
it is too bright, and it is in their eyes)
