I know that dance
I know the "I don't wanna"
dance

I know that too tired
too hard
too late
too far
too cold

resistDANCE

Tonight we dance the release of a good rain
 

Turning towards
the pulse of presence
the downbeat of downtown
the temporary blessing of breath
 

Beyond the trying
and the doing
the push
and the collapse
that our culture crafts of us
The waters of my longing
lap at these concrete shores
