Twirl and twist
Leaves burnt orange and crimson
And flashy gold
They dance
Intoxicated by the freedom
Headless of on-lookers
Pirouetting to a hidden rhythm
Subtext of the universe
Deaf to this undercurrent
Blind to the subtle
We have forgotten how to listen
A delicate melody
Drowned out by selfishness, by power, by greed
