SHE DANCES

In dreaming
I hear her
breathing
she is always dancing

(every warrior
gone within a shadow
is dancing)

arms around me
dancing
in joy
or sorrow

Peace
or War

day or night
falling

always with me
dancing

(children laughing
tomorrow...
... and the old ones
like children long ago)

She dances
with me
in her arms

Oh!
how I love thee

... Earth!

(Ghost dancers dream)
