‘…for fear your grace will fall’ - ‘Let’s Dance’, David Bowie

by Steve Day 30th October 2026

Jennie, let’s dance blue-eyed blues
above the vast open spaces of our past.
Let love accept the baton; 
strange how one lifelong marathon 
doesn’t seem so far.
Here we are, having boogied to the top of the Tor, 
I hear you call out to the storm,
If you say run, I’ll run with you.
