Opposites Attract
For those who like music with their dancing,
arrangements can be made to play melodies.*
Renata needed no music, dancing every evening
while watching herself in her studio’s mirror.
So, she was fat and had just the one leg?
Grace was entirely possible.
As were grace notes, such as evinced by redoubtable Sweeney.
Who was fat and had one leg.
Opposite amputations.
“Darling mine!” he very nearly sang, “We’ll strap together
to make one powerhouse performance!”
She still didn’t know, kept imagining how it’d look in the mirror
as she studied herself there.
