Dancing Daydreams
...
I have never been fluent
in the language of the tongue
Words
getting caught
somewhere between nerve endings
And lost in translation.
Speaking is stiff,
words like bricks,
And it haunted me for a long time.
But the body...
The body is like butter.
Connection through kinetic motion...
I could dance forever.
And I will.
Tell me words
and the computer in me
will process the meaning,
But show me
And I'll merge with your understanding.
...
The body has its own language.
Intuitive touch on the tip of my tongue.
And I'm fluent in the feeling.
