Dance (Earth)

Legs of the sea eclipsed with veins of fire A ribbon tossing about the wind waiting for Saturn, for whats to transpire Branches to leaves- fingertips to nails A spine as strong as the Holy Grail Transparent and stories told Dig beneath the sheath brighter than gold Knots tangled in spiderwebs and silk wisps of air whiter than milk Divots and mounds grounded in the Earth Tracing up and down in shadows and light Nothing equals its worth --- Dedicated to the seventeenth century weirdos who were obsessed with having the ability to dance.
