Stormy PoeticJustice
18 November 2007
dance
drums
beats that move
you sway
to the
steady rhythm
your head thrown back
the slope
of your neck
evident
the curve
of your back
flows
into your hips
lips
blushed with warmth
fed by your quickly beating
heart
art
in motion
illuminated
by the glow
of the flames
from the fire
you dance around
to the steady rhythm
of the drums
I am mesmerized
hypnotized
by your shape
your shadows
your feet
barely
touching
the ground
the earth
cannot hold you
i
cannot hold you
as you float along
the flames
and dance
around my heart
