Tinker Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Cavorting Long thin arms and legs of an African tribesman in full headdress undulate in rhythm with the vibrations of primitive percussion instruments. Bent knees lift and spring while sharp elbows flap wide. All manner of awkward yet graceful poses process through his movement. The stealthy lion, the big winged buzzard, the slippery serpent infiltrate his dance. Raw, earth, primal. ~~jvg Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_con Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 This is absolutely fun, and indeed resembles my awkward flapping😃 one technical flaw, jaguars are South American not African so maybe, tiger. And good grief your up really early or really late. Quote thegateless.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 Thanks DC. I just used the first animal that popped in my head. But you are right I need an African cat and what is more African than the lion which is the headrests I imagined as I began writing this. ~~Judi 1 Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
