LA DANSUESE
All I know is the dance
Ballet, abiding treasure
I cannot stay away
I linger.
Fabled ingenue
Bracing the line
Supporting the stance
Swaying apace
Tarrying time
Senescent gift
Legs halted
Yoked defect
Muscled gams
Gone to weight.
Thickened grace
Commonsense neighs the not
Instructor now the name
My field planed hall
My slippers shod.
Constrained cheval
My muse chaperons
Ally in reduction
Withering endowment
Gallop has turned to canter
In this third antiquity.
Go on to Abandonment
from The Third Age in
Paris
