STEP FAST

 

The room filled dark with twists

where shadow vapors of crossed arms and

legs on a wall flashed under

low beamed lights

capturing a motion of souls bathing warm

like angels walking over clouds

high above an earth beat

of rotating

full sounds until the moon rises

pressing out the cold with voices

melting into sweet savor over

the tan and white, short and tall

all blended into the soup of it

where lean and long notes

brush with nourish the willing

the hungry while silver shoes

and magnolias sweat out

a healing, running hard

and one step ahead of the

devil.
