What do you think this poem is about?

Poets Dance

Poets Dance in the heart of rhythms
Discussion spoken in the pen
Energy being tampered with in the music
Limitations rarely occur in audio-silence
Artist writes from the heart of rhythms
The Poets are dancing
Flaming hot ink drips from the pen
The paper it's a sacrificial victim
It just seems to lay still
there's no escape when the Poets Dance
Rhythmic heartbeats offset the confrontation
of clumsy feet
To tap dance on paper is a joy one must experience
to fully appreciate
It’s not for the faint-hearted

    awsome poem. ive always thought music and poetry were intertwined in one another and id never thought of poetry as tap dancing om paper. i love that imagery. i must add that i heart your name as well. it embodys the whole ' philisophical greek scholar' persona....so cool

    I like this poem especially the lines
    'To tap dance on paper is a joy one must experience
    to fully appreciate
    It’s not for the faint-hearted'
