Poetry - 2006

a reading for Stacy Russell by Lloyd Godman

pas de bourree

dance energy swings outward from a centre
form blurs creating dimension
metamorphoses like Duchampian stair cases
passion enters movement
eloquent strings of colour twist in space
cut the air against whiteness
Poise holds balance against weight
in a dance with light - with life
elegance fluidity combine
a body moves through space time
grace adorns this universe
