Dancing on the edge of madness (poem)

I wonder how close to madness I can dance,
the threshold like a line in the sand,
in a high stakes game of tug of war.
And I feel it tugging on me,
a dance partner on the other side,
hand outstretched asking for one more.

And if I take her hand,
I will cross that threshold,
to spin and swing about with her.
Until I accidentally spin her across,
and she becomes nothing but paper,
leaving my mind spinning with my own words.
