DANCE POEMS






DIVERTIMENTO NO. 15
George Balanchine





Crown


                 thoughts
                 breathing
                           wedge


 mirror exit
            dissolving line








            corridor


                        bird heart


                        dynamo


                                      switch stripe
                       photo margin




                       breathing blossom




                       full stop
              crossed spot
asymptote
                 center
uneven curl dissolve
                 a rune of limbs




                 pale binary shift




                 mandala spin


binary vanish
                 trumpet telegraph




                 slash grace
patterer                        angle


another superimposition


stitched sway






                  a restless clock






       on a wire
                      Mercury
at last symmetry


twirling ingot
roving delta
       eye aperture


frame becomes film


shifting fourths


lonely tumbleweed


                              a closing door
                              in
                                 concord
as though an echo of before


                              another door
another union
                              last to the sky
                    
                              a sundial


a church
                              steeple tip
                              of motion


                 intrepid en face






                 the space between


                       center together






overhead clouds
                dipping further into fantasy




                among


asymmetry makes a center
a violin
                   entreaty
                                      segregate
                    bright over


                    twinned quadrants




                    corridor returns
                                   a margin




                    among them all
returns her


                    the shape at center
                    ever adjusting


an expanding court


within memory                        or
                       captivity


spinning into resolution


resolute pairs
                        the full force
