Ecstatic States of Being

Sep 07, 2023 20:50

I was dancing,
and dancing,
and dancing,
and dancing,
and dancing,
when I looked up from my dancing
to see me
still dancing
and never
wanting
to
stop.

Ok, ok,... "dancing" is being used suggestively here.

I was moving my body rhythmically
(although spasmodically)
with abandon
and joy
performing the traditional dance of
"jumping up and down
using only your ankles/calves
in a bodycrush of people
to try and express joy and movement
without being crushed, falling,
or getting in anybody else's way."
popular at large, crowded concerts.



I only do this
when I am standing up front,
against the stage
(or barricade)
so I can hold on
and let go
at the same time
because
I'm complicated
(and uncoordinated)
like that.

I haven't done that since the pandemic.

I am re-reborn.

Dear Rock & Roll,
Thanks, I needed that.

Signed,
The Wench
