Red Dress MAG
February 21, 2018
a wild eruption of silk and skin:
the fabric swirls with her caramel curls,
wind brushes up against her legs,
lifting the blossoming rose skirt.
intense, hot, red flutters around,
as if she were soaring with the wind.
she can feel her stomach twist,
and she spreads her arms to dance
around and around and around,
she spins in the bare gray room.
muscles tensing, she feels so alive.
but all the same, she is still trapped
in that gray box,
with her red dress.
so, she dances –
