Comes the dance

You must dance

Comes the death

You can’t help it!

           —Ayacucho Quechua dance song

‍

Of course. Absolutely.

One hundred percent.

Obviously. Zero doubt.

I want it all. Literally.

Everything.

Full stop, round-the-clock,

forever and ever and ever,

all. of. it.

‍

No hesitation, totally committed

crushing it, in-training, re-

programming old patterns

every day, taking data in,

optimizing, trading up,

on the move, hungry diet

motivated, dialed-up,

focused even on rest days

wholly invested in higher self

box breathing, supplements

creatine, journals, kettlebells

resistance-release, tension-

torsion, tucking, holding

repeated appraisals, ones & zeds

the skin, the voice, the hype couture

of sidelong glances

timed for max impact.

‍

All tongue this life,

only cheek

swishing sea foam & planet roar

anchored immodestly

at the center of the universe.

‍

A pragmatist in the last best harbor

I concede I am a mere world unto you

& although I will not take your calls

you arouse whole oceans of waves within.
