|
Moon of plenty, moon of mischance |
|
It'll be what you want but you can't stop the dance |
|
Try to count the steps and they change while you stare |
|
And the translucent moon floats in waves of blue air |
|
And we cry out for grace to lay truth bare |
|
The dance is the truth and it's everywhere |
|
Pas de deux in stark silhouette |
|
pulsing against a clear orange sunset |
|
As the distance shifts from skin unto skin |
|
Look at how bodies shape the spaces they're in |
|
See the limbs slide smooth through unresisting air |
|
The dance is the truth and it's everywhere |
|
In grains of sand and Galaxies |
|
In plasma flow and rain in trees |
|
In the sepia swell of silted-up surf |
|
In the ebb and the flow of dying and birth |
|
In wounded streets and whispered prayer |
|
The dance is the truth and it's everywhere |
