The Dancer

A poem by Tabitha Anderson

 

windy feet caress
      what we call
              a floor a stage
disappearing world behind
      rhythm and step and this carefree smile
traffic laws have no place here –
my own roundabout, my ocean
             let me tell you of my days
i could try to talk about it
      but it just don’t work that way
      you must come and see
or just fly the kite yourself
