DANCER

 

she's a dancer

fluid

mercury sliding past the sun

a slow burn intensity

riding underneath her surface

 

she's weightless

free electrons surround her

hair flowing

cascading

like a newborn galaxy

 

she's propelled

by wings of an angel

spinning with precision

whirling

retreating

time stops

when she looks at you

 

she's an enigma

force fields sparkling around her

imaginary vectors

attach her

to the center of the audience's web

 

she accelerates

rocketing up into the blackness

flight of a dream

frozen by a spotlight

then she stops

reluctantly falls earthward

turning back

into a solid hologram mystery
