Dance for me,
Dance my love!
Red scarf flying in the wind,
a car ride to purgatory,
with a leash to the lake
and the power of movement
to guide your career...
Your name is not lost,nor
Is Tharp's or Barishnakov's.
For your legend lies
on the dance of the swan
and your children drown to heaven with you.

Dance for me,
Dance my love!
Memories of your taunting sensuality
will be with us always.



(Dedicated to The bereaved of Isabella Duncan,
and those lovely children to whom which we tell,
"Dance!")
A whisper and a thrill
A whisper and a chill

    i have to tell you, some of my favorite songs ever are about dancing.

    there is one by jackson browne called for a dancer, i love it.

    dancers are just awesome, and i believe that we are dancers.

    love the poem.

    It doesnt hurt.... when I bleed
    but memories...they eat me
    I've seen it all before,...
    bring it on cause I'm no victim.

    oh, and Tiny danceer...not actually about dancing, but a great song
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key
