These words are so true. Good and bad are always around us. The picture is a good illustration of the words. The woman being the blessings and her dance partner the curses.
Congrats on placing third in the contest

In my opinion, a clever play on words, striking in verse and imagery. To me, it captures the essence of the poet's illustrative imagination. It complies perfectly with the prompt, and I wish you best of luck in the contest...

Comment from June Sargent
This is so true. The dance of life is very precarious as we are surrounded by both good and evil. And depending upon which direction we choose to move in, results can be positive or negative. Very perceptive piece. Well done.

This is a powerful one and beautifully balanced. It even looks good on the page. Arm in Arm. Dancing is a nice choice too. So many types of images to be dancing around!

I really like this Lune so much. Well written. Very complimentary photo artwork. Good syllable counts. No edits or adjustments necessary from me.

You have made excellent use of all your syllables in this profound
poetic statement about the polar opposites in life--and they can occur
simultaneously! GREAT!

Comment from Eric M McChesney
A thrilling look at the dangers we all face when we dance with danger, dance with the dark side. This was a great piece that showed both sides and how each side can benefit if we work side by side instead of against each other.

A very well-written Lune poem about the intense tango dance that feels like the dancers bring blessings and curses to those around them watching this dancers.

No wonder she's tentative. If something like that evil-looking creature wanted to dance with me I'd prefer to be a wallflower and sit it out. You have chosen a wonderful image to go with this excellent lune (it even has the moon in it, so it's worth a 6 but sorry used up.)
Your poem covers the idea of the opposites/contrasts of life, dancing tantalisingly around us or dogging our steps, waiting to hurt or harm.
