I don't remember how to dance


I see the laughter and

The dancing

But I do not feel

The showing of teeth,

The upheaval of breath,

The jig of feet

 

I can’t find the darkness

anymore and

that should be a good thing

but I’m lost in the light

I can still feel the shaking of my fingers

The hand over my mouth
