dance with me

this is how it feels
     to be
  in a lonely white circular dance~~
                                                arms stretched out
                  fingers tracing
               unknown outlines
       of motions in empty fields.

i become a blur of vibrations
             filling air with voices
         of incomprehensible hope;
                                         tales of Herodotus,
         backlogged whispers of past notions
        when miracles are made of
                       a e i o u
                                compositions;
                 tongues rolling over, clicking on syllables
        to the extraordinary beats
                    tap
                          tap
                                  tap
                                                          like rain.

i give the soft sounds
                                 my feet follow
     the hesitant phrasing
                                                   of swaying consonants
          shifting with the
                      a e i o u
                                      the union
         of the flesh and of the unknown,
         and all that labored breathing
       to the exceptional rhythm
                  clap
                         clap
                                  clap
                                                        from hands
          that move over the length
                                of your creations.
