14/30
like music i float
trumpet blast, spinning pines
swaying butterfly free
like music i press
rhythm bound, broken sticks
unwinding spooled rage
like music i turn
plucked strings, wide hips
dirty feet step
like music i open
staccato heart, lifting notes
double-time truth
Note: The photo was taken while dancing under the pines at WorldFest and the words were inspired by the sounds of a jazz quartet.
