I slipped out of my skin
last night I danced
like my love and I
were one
I danced into my reflection
turning a spotlight on
and there my shadow
pulsed and waved with the wall
I turned the window to night
I danced as a naked spirit
I danced the naked shaman
into an instrument, a tongue
learning the language
of never spoken
like deeply set secrets
embodied in hips and elbows and breasts
show me what it looks like to be free
I danced with the moon a small sliver
I danced the clouds silver
I danced myself awake into the black
into the plump of my hips
I danced in my light
I danced in de- light
I found the source of the dance
and the base
left a wake of white fingers
crossing my belly,
I could have …
a child
in there
I’m naturally
protruding
like I’m three months carrying
a seed
I dance the rounded belly
full of power
golden stream
my strength
and one divine
seed
standing alone
this immaculate passion
I feed from the stars
I dance the rounded belly
by my self.
It is full.
