After seeing dancers at Iowa Dance Fest 2007 in Iowa City

WITH HIPS by Dorian Byrd 4/20/27


To move like that again

Like that…with hips

So smooth!


Get down…low

Caress the floor

That modern dancer’s floor


With hips rolling over

Under imaginary hills that

Curve, dip, over

Under a dancing other


Hips that swoop

Hips that slide


Blending extremities

Stretching

Reaching into lines,

Paths in space that

Strike! Define!


Then return so lovingly,

So smoothly

To that floor

That modern dancer’s floor


With oozing muscles

Like pouring silk

Sensuously smooth

Sensuously rich

That is a groove to

Indulge in

Get upside down

Low in


Make silent music

Lipsincing space with

Magical, modern

Dancers hips.
