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.
