Dancer
You massage the universe’s spine
the way you twirl through time
and leave shadows on the sun.
–Saul Williams
You are love and light and brightness.
Endless and serene, you move
through the perfect aura
of your timeless self.
You are grace and mystery uncaptured,
breathtaking dancer on the stars,
bringing another brilliance
to the startled moon.
There is none like thee
among the dancers.
–Ezra Pound
Christopher M. Swan 2009
