That Skirt
Happy National Poetry Month from Stance on Dance!
BY RACHELLE WOODS; ILLUSTRATION BY LIZ BRENT
dramas dance down the sidewalk
I want that skirt
want a level of magic
a body heightened experience
when the poet’s son
and the reciter’s daughter dance
it is magic
healing, acceptance of self
a skirt I want
mostly found poem
using words spoken by Paul Langland
