A bustle

We’re returning home
crispy snow crackles
under the feet,
following
voices mingle.

The whole day of touching
base
with someone’s heart,
credulous necks
unleashing.

Holding the door open
for insights and issues,
loop back for granules
of sense,

and reason
our next entree
to sprinkle the magic spree
to find the solace
in distraction
bewilder

Anthropometry of Earth…

  6. Enjoyed. The flow through the tasks along with the thought process, prepared well for the process shown in the video.

  7. Very nice, as stated above, the management-speak simply melts into the scintillating poetics; clever & expressive take on the prompt. Like the lines /and reason/our next entree/.

  18. I had to look up anthropometry--though I should have known it had to do with performance art and movement. I enjoyed the Meyerholdish biomechanical movement more than the silent commentaryon nude art--but here I am living your poem! What is the process of "making sense of" or enjoying art that seeks to bypass our ordinary modes of being? While rushing home, figuratively and literally?

    1. Thank you for commenting, Susan. Anthropometry -' the scientific study of the measurements and proportions of the human body.'
      Please, watch the video starting from 8th min - this was revelation for me...not about the relation to theater or norms...

  21. Touching base with someone's heart..that is a lovely thought..

  22. Art and science have always had a relationship although each might deny that where one has free will and the other exactitude. Life is like that twirling round like bodies creating beautiful images.

  23. I love the breaks. They feel like the click-click-click of pictures been taken, one after another...

  24. Not sure I understand the entire message here, but I did enjoy your poem and thought the video was fasinating. I think the message will sink in on a level other than intellectual. I felt this art.
