the two of us are like scorpions,
dancing around each other,
pincers raised,
tails arched,
ready to strike at the first chance we have.
and each time,
we hope the strike will be enough
to end the other.
what a vicious game.
or is it more of a battle?
no, it is a dance.
a dance of death.
danza de la muerte.
it was once a danza del amor.
and you know,
whoever gets to strike first,
will strike to kill.
it's only a question
of who will get the first chance,
of who will have the bravery
to end the other,
once and for all.
