Born Dancing

 

Every fist wave,

every gurgle, every smile

dances to her rhythm

Body sprouts

arms and legs a tangle

working out hips swaying,

hands waving textured stories.

What matters to her mind is always

the shape, the emotion.

Harmonic hormones express with every

arch, dip swirl.

"If you want to be your best,

move in your personal space,

approach every stranger with grace,

know the notes of your theme."

 

It was tragic, the way she was broken.

Yet, amazing, despite her spinal state

of disrepair,

the intense field of her dancing mind

alive and aware.
