the secret

We dance round in a ring and suppose,
But the Secret sits in the middle and knows.
what do you suppose this poem means? 
read each of the following statements and indicate with  tick if you think it is  true or false

this poem has a secret meaning
this poem like every other poem has a secret meaning 
the poet know what this secret is 
the reader knows the secret
there is no secret 

this poem is about a dance 
this poem is inspired by the nursery rhyme Ring a round a Roses 

the secret is an animal 
the secret likes having everyone dance around it
the secret wishes it could be told
the secret wishes never to be told 
everyone enjoys dancing around the secret 
everyone feels each knows the secret and they dance in the glee of knowing 
this is about a satanic ritual in the forest 
there is no secret.  everybody knows 
everybody has a secret 
everybody likes having a secret 
everybody is allowed to have a secret 
you should trust someone who days they don't have a secret 
you don't want to know your husband's/wife's/ son's/daughter's secret 
cancel that 
you want to know your children's secrets but not your spouse's. 
you don't want to know your parent's secrets
