Dance of a Woman not so Young
Don’t tell me Let me guess – he says I guess
I jump from one balcony to the other moving
only the fingers of one of my hands I unhook
the white curtain I place it on my shoulder
I remember that I am shoeless This gives me
the sense of dance I dance in the air Look
My left leg is lighter The right
more skillful – I follow myself look and I am
Every rope at its end right at its edge always
has a tight knot so it doesn’t unravel
Isn’t the unforeseeable the same way? – always at the end
I wish I could teach this dance to someone
