"Don't step on my toes" she said
I replied underneath my breath
"I hope I won't"
My hands wrapped around her
like an amateur anaconda
but she's never comfortable
where my hand's at.
"it should be around my waist" she said
but I acted like I didn't hear a word
we moved to the right and to the left
a little spin, around and around and around
gracefully, like the eagles in the skies.
Then I let go,
I got dizzy a bit
but she never did,
holding onto my shoulder
She bent over like a creature in
a horror movie,
then a full split, I could hear her legs screaming,
a little jump, and another big jump
landing on her toes like a frog.
A loud round of applause from the crowd
they loved it,
What a perfect landing!
So we begin again,
my hands wrapped around her
as she stared deep into my eyes
we moved to the left and to the right
moving to the beats like a dancing butterfly
and then she smiled
"You didn't catch me"
"What!?" I said in confusion
"you ought to have caught me in mid air"
Of course, I remember now,
it was the killer move we practised
but I was mesmerized,
by this beautiful being,
up in the sky, with invisible wings
and coming down, like she brings forth
a divine message from the creator of the universe."
