Then and Now
That spontaneous body that moved with swish and sway
never quite believed that there would come a day
when spring would turn to sprang and run turn into ran
and movement would become a thing achieved by plot and plan.
Dancing done in memory raises less of a sweat.
When we swim in remembrance, rarely do we get wet.
Every action has two pleasures. The first is when we do it,
but it’s equally fantastic later on when we review it.
Prompt words today are swish, body, spontaneous and fantastic.

Many of we expendibles do. Hopefully the new administration will find us to be of more value.
