if i have
to sell my soul
to the devil
to watch you dance...
why arent you dancing?
and who plows the field
left barren?
I think get this one. He is saying selling the soul so someone that is loved has a better life. And he ask why aren't they enjoying it by the metaphor dancing. And also he ask who will do the work now that he's gone. Interesting poem, gets you thinking. If I deciphered that poem incorrectly please inform me.
Because sell your soul to nothing is nothing...What devils want from a soul? they just want to stray from a way...So why need dancing to you if the one who you want to see dancing really care you (from losing soul) ...coz once we losing soul the life is lifeless as life is soulful.._Unwritten SOul
