gypsy rose lee
uncurl, unfurl
into a blooming dance twirl
lay soft or stare hard
but do not be afraid
to show the center of your
self
to the mirror help maid
sit in lachrymose silence
til the end of the sky
fills yours scent cloaked ears
and then dance
to the cloud colored music
you hear
the only absolute
is open
and your interpretation
is the petal spread of living
on a vine scored with rows
of hidden heart thorn
climb the ladder with care
and then jump
into being
scatter petals
shout perfume
nod your head at the coy
wary moon
uncurl, unfurl
into a blooming dance
twirl
