Dancing Fool

I am the fool dancing in front of royalty.
Acting upon a mix of words and movement.
Creating a harmonious beat,
As they laugh at me.

The dance of death weaves me in,
As I struggle to keep hold.
I am still the fool dancing.

I fall and break unable to move.
They think it's a joke .

"What is the purpose of my life," I croak.
